Abstract :
A stochastic collocation method is presented to evaluate the variations of homogenised electromagnetic properties of composite mixtures. The proposed method transforms the stochastic analysis into a number of deterministic simulations. A numerical example shows the effectiveness and efficiency of this technique compared with the Monte Carlo approach.
