Abstract :
For a wave propagating in and through a 1-dimensional inhomogeneous dielectric slab with stochastic properties, we investigate the effectiveness of intrusive polynomial chaos as a way to characterize stochastic aspects of the resulting electric field inside the slab and compare the numerical effort to compute these characteristics to traditional sampling approaches such as the Monte-Carlo method.
