Abstract

An approximation of statistical moments of solutions to exterior Dirichlet and Neumann problems with random boundary surfaces is investigated. A rigorous shape calculus approach has been used to approximate these statistical moments by those of the corresponding shape derivatives, which are computed by boundary integral equation methods. Examples illustrate our theoretical results.
