Computational Methods for the Propagation of Uncertainty in Physical Systems The purpose of the symposium will be to bring together researchers developing and using computational models of uncertainty and heterogeneity at the various length scales. Another important reason for the symposium will be to introduce such models to the computational mechanics community, demonstrating their usefulness and presenting the community with new research challenges that could benefit from its more active involvement.
