Conceptual framework for sensitivity analysis

Geometric variability, arising from production scatter and erosion, exerts a substantial influence on the robustness and performance of high-pressure compressors in aircraft engines. In this engineering domain, the identification of critical geometric characteristics poses a considerable challenge. Within the project "Conceptual Framework for Sensitivity Analysis", novel methodologies must be developed in the field of probabilistics, to establish a process chain for sensitivity analysis of high-dimensional, highly correlated systems. The efficacy of the proposed framework will be assessed through probabilistic CFD studies, facilitated by the utilisation of compressor blade scans.
