Description
Summary:The paper deals with numerical modeling of objects with a natural origin. The stochastic approach based on description using random variables allows processing such challenges. The Monte-Carlo methods are known a tool for simulations containing stochastic parameters however, they require significant computational power to obtain stable results. Authors compare Monte- Carlo with more advanced Polynomial Chaos Expansion (PCE) method. Both statistical tools have been applied for simulation of the electric field used in ohmic heating of potato tuber probes. Results indicate that PCE is remarkably faster, however, it simplifies some probabilistic features of the solution.
