[en] Prediction of jack-up leg penetration requires assesment of uncertainties in calculation models and their input parameter values, including quality and extent of site investigation information. Commonly, uncertainy assesment is achieved by sensitivity analysis. This paper presents a probabilistic approach for a more accurate prediction of jack-up leg penetration behaviour, as an add-on for conventional Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers (SNAME) calculation models....
