Structural & Multidisciplinary Optimization Group 22/25 Concluding remarks Predictive validation for both quadratic and linear models The predictive validation for different mass is a partially success The predictive validation for different height is a success but the assumption of constant CD is not clearly proven Comparison between models Cannot conclude Overall Reason for the differences in the area metric is not clear The effect of the manufacturing uncertainty is significant (i.e. very different area metrics for the same test condition)

Posterior Dist. Course Project: Validation of Drag Coefficient -Yiming Zhang Validation based on 1 set of data: Validation based on 3 set of data: Summary: (1) Quadratic dependence seems accurate using one set; Quadratic and linear dependence both don’t match well using 3 sets; Prior Area Metric:0.4042 Post Area Metric:0.1695 Prior Area Metric:0.4920 Post Area Metric: 0.2 Validation Area Metric:0.1923 Validation Area Metric:0.1267 2 clips: 1 clip: Posterior Area Metric:0.1729 Validation Area Metric:0.1960 Summary: Two confi. interval of Cd don’t coincide. Linear dependence seems inaccurate. 2 clips: Posterior Area Metric:0.1987 1 clip: Validation Area Metric: 0.1253 Summary: Seems reasonable, but not accurate Validation Area Metric: 0.0970 Validation Area Metric: 0.1394 (2) SRQ is required to be fall time. If use Cd as SRQ, comparison could be more consistent and clear; (3) 0.8 seems a reasonable estimation of Cd. This estimation would be more accurate while introducing more sets of data.

Structural & Multidisciplinary Optimization Group 28/25 Problem1: Conservative estimate of the fall time Estimating the 5 th percentile of the fall time of one helicopter Since fall time follows a normal distribution, estimating the 5 th percentile is based on estimating the mean and standard deviation (STD) of the fall time distribution The mean and STD are estimated based on 10 samples There is epistemic uncertainty in the estimated mean and STD due to a finite number of samples To compensate the epistemic uncertainty, a conservative measure to compensate the epistemic uncertainty is required Estimating the 5 th percentile with 95% confidence level
