Abstract
A realistic quantification of all input information is a basic requirement in order to obtain useful results from engineering analyses. The concept of quantification and the associated uncertainty model have to be selected in agreement with the amount and quality of the available information. For inconsistent information, a distinction between probabilistic and nonprobabilistic characteristics is beneficial. In this distinction, uncertainty refers to probabilistic characteristics and nonprobabilistic characteristics are summarized as imprecision. When uncertainty and imprecision occur simultaneously, the uncertainty model fuzzy randomness appears useful. In this paper, the fuzzy probabilistic model is utilized in a Bayesian approach to take account of imprecision in data and in prior expert knowledge. The propagation of imprecision and uncertainty is investigated for selected cases. The Bayesian approach extended to inconsistent information is demonstrated by means of an example.
