Summary
High computation time has arisen as an outstanding obstacle for researchers and engineers of civil engineering problems, especially with the development of computers and new numerical methods. The application of metamodels is one approach of trying to overcome this problem by significantly reducing the computation cost of models, without substantially decreasing the original model's quality. In this survey, a variance-based sensitivity analysis of the finite elements model of a triaxial test is performed using two metamodeling approaches, and judgment is made on the prediction quality of the methods.
