2Aleatory uncertain variable - uniform
3
4Description::
5The number of uniform uncertain variables and their distribution lower and upper
6bounds are required specifications, while variable descriptors is an optional specification.
7The uniform distribution has the density function:
8\f[f(x) = \frac{1}{U-L}\f]
9where
10\f$U\f$ and \f$L\f$
11are the upper and lower bounds of the uniform distribution, respectively. The mean of the uniform distribution is
12\f$\frac{U+L}{2}\f$
13 and the variance is
14\f$\frac{(U-L)^2}{12}\f$.

18Theory::
19This distribution is a special case of the more general beta distribution.

21For some methods, including vector and centered parameter studies, an
22initial point is needed for the uncertain variables. When not given
23explicitly, these variables are initialized to their means.
