In most applications of simulation to construction, the underlying Probability Distribution Function (PDF) is generally unknown. Consequently, an expert will have to select a PDF hoping that the one that is chosen matches the shape of the underlying distribution. This research attempts to quantify, through a sensitivity analysis, the effect of subjective information in choosing parameters for a Beta distribution to be used in earthmoving simulation |
