Abstract: In the framework of uncertainty treatment in numerical simulation, Global sensitivity analysis (GSA) aims at determining (qualitatively or quantitatively) how the variability of the uncertain inputs affects the model output. However, from reliability and risk management perspectives, GSA might be insufficient to capture the influence of the inputs on a restricted domain of the output (e.g., critical event).
