Probabilistic method and system for testing a material

A system for simulation based testing of materials, the system comprising:

• a processor based device configured to:
• i. select a first set of points from a data generated from a design space;
• ii. generate a stochastic metamodel based on the first set of points;
• iii. determine an uncertainty value based on the stochastic metamodel, wherein the uncertainty value is representative of variability of a prediction value generated from the stochastic metamodel;
• iv. identify a second set of points different from the first set of points, from the data generated from the design space, based on the uncertainty value;
• v. combine the second set of points with the first set of points to generate a third set of points;
• vi. assign the third set of points to the first set of points;
• and
• iteratively perform (ii)-(vi) till the uncertainty value is less than or equal to a predetermined threshold value.

A non-transitory computer readable medium encoded with a program for simulation based testing of materials, to instruct a processor based device to:

• i. select a first set of points from a data generated from a design space;
• ii. generate a stochastic metamodel based on the first set of points;
• iii. determine an uncertainty value based on the stochastic metamodel, wherein the uncertainty value is representative of variability of a prediction value generated from the stochastic metamodel;
• iv. identify a second set of points different from the first set of points, from the data generated from the design space, based on the uncertainty value;
• v. combine the second set of points with the first set of points to generate a third set of points;
• vi. assign the third set of points to the first set of points;
• and
• iteratively perform (ii)-(vi) till the uncertainty value is less than or equal to a predetermined threshold value.
