abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">Precise calculation of the trajectory of store separation is critical in assessing whether the store can be released safely. Store ejection is the initial stage of the
releasing process and any uncertainty introduced at this stage will propagate through
the whole trajectory. In this work, the impact of the uncertainties in ejector modeling
on the simulation of a generic store separation is investigated by using a Monte-Carlo-based approach. To reduce the extremely large computation cost resulted from the
direct use CFD in Monte Carlo simulation, the CFD solutions are represented by a
time-dependent Kriging model, which is constructed at each time step by using the
samples from the URANS simulations. The stochastic outputs, including the distribution of probability density function, expected value and 95% confidence interval of
store separation trajectory, are obtained by the Monte Carlo simulations. The sensitivity analysis is also carried out by using the Monte-Carlo-based method to determine
the most significant variables in ejector modeling, which affect the output uncertainty.
Our results show that ejector modeling is one of the main uncertainty sources of store
separation simulation and the approximation in ejector modeling can cause a significant deviation, especially in the angular displacement.</p>},
