About This Course

This video is a part of a series of short educational videos on geotechnical reliability and risk initiated by ISSMGE TC304. This video focuses on probabilistic characterization of geotechnical site and model uncertainty. It starts with an introduction of geotechnical site and model uncertainty, followed by commonly used probabilistic models to quantify these uncertainties and a general Bayesian framework for model selection and parameter identification. The video is supposed to be educational while related references are provided for interested audiences.
