Abstract :
Spectral stochastic finite element method (SSFEM), used in mechanics to take into account random aspects of input data, has been implemented, as an extended version, in the 3-D finite element method (FEM) software CARMEL dedicated to electromagnetic field computation. As a test case, this approach has been applied to a 3-D electrostatic problem and successfully validated by comparing with the Monte Carlo simulation method involving usual "deterministic" CARMEL resolutions
