Abstract :
Stochastic spectral finite-element method can be used to take into account some random aspects in the input data (material characteristic, source terms) involved in static electromagnetism problems. Similarly to the deterministic case, two potential formulations can be used in the stochastic case. The vector potential formulation applied to static problems is developed and compared to the scalar potential one, previously developed.
