Ten iterative steps for model development and evaluation applied to Computational Fluid Dynamics for Environmental Fluid Mechanics (2012, background): “This theme was also addressed by Stern et al. (2001). They distinguished between verification, which is a process for assessing numerical simulation uncertainty and, when conditions permit,”
A comprehensive framework for verification, validation, and uncertainty quantification in scientific computing (2011, background): “Some researchers argue that numerical approximation errors can be treated as random variables and that the variance of the contributors can be summed in order to obtain an estimate of the total uncertainty due to numerical approximations [11,12].”
Measures of agreement between computation and experiment: Validation metrics (2004, background): “[2,41–49] focus only on comparing a deterministic value of the SRQ from the computational model with the experimental data.”
Quantitative V&V of CFD simulations and certification of CFD codes (2006, methodology): “The V&V approach [9] has been shown to be successful in establishing intervals of V&V for RANS simulations for ship hydrodynamics by present authors and colleagues [12–19] and international colleagues through its use at Gothenburg 2000 Workshop on CFD in Ship Hydrodynamics [20] and CFD Workshop Toky”
RANS Computational Fluid Dynamics Predictions of Pitch and Heave Ship Motions in Head Seas (2005, methodology): “Verification and validation processes used in this work follow the methodology and procedures presented in Stern et al (2001).”
A new level set numerical wave tank with improved density interpolation for complex wave hydrodynamics (2016, methodology): “[44], when the convergence ratio R 2 [0, 1], the model is monotonically converging.”
Unsteady RANS method for ship motions with application to roll for a surface combatant (2006, methodology): “Numerical and modeling errors and uncertainties for the unsteady roll motion simulations are estimated by using the verification and validation (V&V) procedures given in [36], demonstrated in [37], and recently in this journal for the Esso-Osaka tanker ship in [3].”
Ship motions using single-phase level set with dynamic overset grids (2007, methodology): “The procedures described in [24–26] were used to perform a verification analysis for the zeroth harmonic of the resistance, CT ;0.”
