Abstract

The paper presents new statistical approaches for modeling highly variable mechanical properties and screening specimens in development of new materials. Particularly, for steels, Charpy V-Notch (CVN) exhibits substantial scatter which complicates prediction of impact toughness. The paper proposes to use Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) for screening specimens with respect to CVN. Two approaches to estimation of CVaR are discussed. The first approach is based on linear regression coming from the Mixed-Quantile Quadrangle, and the second approach builds CVN distribution with percentile regression, and then directly calculates CVaR. The accuracy of estimated CVaR is assessed with some variant of the coefficient of multiple determination. We estimated discrepancy between estimates derived by two approaches with the Mean Absolute Percentage error. We compared VaR and CVaR risk measures in the screening process. We proposed a modified procedure for ranking specimens, which takes into account the uncertainty in estimates of CVaR.
