J. Díaz, S. Hernández
Univ. of Coruna, Spain

Keywords: uncertainty quantification, heat transfer, robust design

In this paper, a revision of two existing procedures of uncertainty quantification and robust design will be presented, along with their capabilities and their applicability to heat transfer problems in aircraft structures. Also, some practical examples showing the performance of the methods are included.
