Abstract
AbstractThe goal of this chapter is to define different types of uncertainty in technical systems and to provide a unified terminology for this book. Indeed, uncertainty comes in different disguises. The first distinction is made with respect to the knowledge on the source of uncertainty: stochastic uncertainty, incertitude or ignorance. Then three main occurrences of uncertainty are discussed: data, model and structural uncertainty.
