Introduction

Predictive CapabilitiesI Verification provides evidence that the model is solved

correctly. Mathematics issue.

I Validation provides evidence that the correct model issolved. Physics issue.

I Prediction under Uncertainty (!): use of computationalmodel to predict the state of SSI system under conditionsfor which the computational model has not been validated.

I Modeling and Parametric Uncertainties

I Predictive capabilities with low Kolmogorov Complexity

I Modeling and simulation goal:predict and inform, rather than (force) fit

Uncertainties

Modeling Uncertainty

I Simplified modeling: Features (important ?) are neglected(6D ground motions, inelasticity)

I Modeling Uncertainty: unrealistic and unnecessarymodeling simplifications

I Modeling simplifications are justifiable if one or two levelhigher sophistication model shows that features beingsimplified out are not important

Modeling Uncertainty: Nuclear Power Plant

Modeling and Simulation of Nuclear Power Plants

I Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs) design based on a numberof simplified assumptions!

I Linear elastic material behavior

I Seismic Motions: 1D or 3 × 1D, or real 3D (6D)

I Savings in construction cost possible with more accuratemodeling of NPPs

I Improvements in safety of NPPs also possible, even withhigher seismic motions, as inelastic effects "eat up"(dissipate) seismic energy

Modeling Uncertainty: Nuclear Power Plant

Nuclear Power Plants: 6D or 1D Seismic MotionsI Assume that a full 6D (3D) motions at the surface are only

recorded in one horizontal directionI From such recorded motions one can develop a vertically

propagating shear wave in 1DI Apply such vertically propagating shear wave to the same

soil-structure system

PEP and SEPFEM are notbased on a Monte Carlo method, rather they expand uncertaininput variables and uncertain degrees of freedom (unknowns)into spectral probabilistic spaces and solve for PDFs ofresulting displacement, stress and strain in a single run.
