  • x2. Among other

components, these forces involve also the running velocity v of the vehicle, the conicity of the wheels and the wheel-rail friction.

Pros: Elegant fomulation, one single solution of the system,

  • ptimal accuracy

Cons: Intrusive and cumbersome to implement, non-linearities must be treated carefully, weak on time-dependent problems (but there exist improvements).

UQ - Probabilistic Collocation Methods (PCM)

Solve the deterministic ODE on a ”proper” set ΘM =

  • Z(j)M

j=1 of nodes in the

random space:

  • ∂tu(t, Z(j)) = f(u),

D × (0, T] u(0) = u0, D × {t = 0} This will give u(j) = u(t, Z(j)) solutions on which we can apply interpolation rules or projection rules. Let’s consider the discrete projection: uN(Z) =

  • |k|≤N

ˆ uk(t)Φk(Z) ˆ uk(t) = 1 γk E [u(t, Z)φk(Z)] = 1 γk

  • u(z)φk(z)dFZ(z)

where the integral can be computed by cubature rules using the ”properly” selected set

  • f nodes ΘM. Then statistics can be easily obtained:

µu(t) ≈ E [uN(t, Z)] = ˆ u0(t) Var [u(t, Z)] ≈ Var [uN(t, Z)] =

  • |k|≤N

γk ˆ u2

k(x, t)

Target: obtain the ”best” statistics out of the smallest number of simulation!

Hermite polynomials are chosen as basis for the projection/cubature. Projection with these polynomials can be highly accurate, using proper Gauss quadrature nodes and weights, for which analytical formulas exist.
