Appendix A
Operative Procedures for the Methods of Uncertainty Propagation
This appendix reports the operative procedures for uncertainty propagation according to some of the methods described in Chapter 6.
A.1 Level 1 Hybrid Probabilistic–Possibilistic Framework
We assume that the uncertainty related to the first n input quantities, 
, of the function g is described using the probability distributions 
, whereas the uncertainty related to the remaining 
quantities 
is represented using the possibility distributions 
. The number of repetitions of the Monte Carlo sampling of the input quantities 
will be referred to as 
. The operative steps for the propagation of the hybrid uncertainty information through the function g are (see Figure 6.14)
1. Set .
2. Sample the j th realization of from the ...
