Advances in system design principles and computational technologies enable virtually unlimited design complexity and thus require far more design decisions. Specifically, the increased complexity and flexibility in a system adds significant amounts of uncertainty associated with a larger number of design variables. Computational and theoretical challenges are abound during the quantification, representation, and management of uncertainty. It is crucial to incorporate the effects that emerge from these complexities and uncertainties in the design and manufacturing processes of engineering systems in order to regulate safety and security. With the advent of machine learning, a subfield of computer science that explores construction of models from data and then uses those models to make predictions on data, many computationally efficient frameworks, for uncertainty representation and quantification, can be explored. In the past decade, significant research has been conducted in utilizing and developing various machine-learning algorithms. These developments signify a great opportunity for uncertainty quantification and representation in the systems design process.
The aim of this special issue of JED is to bring together original articles that display the significant impact of recent developments in the areas of systems design and uncertainty quantification. Topics include, but are not limited to the following:
