Abstract

This work uses the Bayesian inference technique to infer the Young modulus from the stochastic linear elasticity equation. The Young modulus is modeled by a finite Karhunen Lo\'{e}ve expansion, while the solution to the linear elasticity equation is approximated by the finite element method. The high-dimensional integral involving the posterior density and the quantity of interest is approximated by a higher-order quasi-Monte Carlo method.
