    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensitivity_analysis

    While uncertainty analysis aims to describe the distribution of the output (providing its statistics, moments, pdf, cdf,...), sensitivity analysis aims to measure and quantify the impact of each input or a group of inputs on the variability of the output (by calculating the corresponding sensitivity indices). Figure 1 provides a schematic ...

  8. Density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density

    The effect of pressure and temperature on the densities of liquids and solids is small. The compressibility for a typical liquid or solid is 10 −6 bar −1 (1 bar = 0.1 MPa) and a typical thermal expansivity is 10 −5 K −1. This roughly translates into needing around ten thousand times atmospheric pressure to reduce the volume of a ...
