Uncertainty defined by interval (epistemic uncertainty)

Extends from UndefinedUncertainty (No uncertainty defined), BaseUncertainty (Basic uncertainty definitions).

Information

An epistemic uncertainty, i.e. the uncertainty due to lack of knowledge – e.g., on the side of model, analysis or experiment. The uncertainty is described only by the minimum and the maximum possible value of the uncertain scalar. See also BaseUncertainty uncertainty for general information.

The parameter value is here considered being equal to the nominal value which is used in an optimization run that determines improved control parameters or the nominal value used during a Monte Carlo simulation to propagate uncertainties to output variables.
