The objective of this chapter is to present, analyze and compare some practical methods that could be used in engineering to quantify uncertainty, for mechanical systems governed by partial differential equations. Most applications refer to aerodynamics, but the methods described in this chapter can be applied easily to other disciplines, such as structural mechanics.
