abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">The issue of reliability of computer predictions of physical
events is examined as the goal of verification and validation processes.
It is argued that verification, both solution and code verification, can
be carried out with a high degree of confidence, even though much
remains to be done to improve and advance verification procedures. It is
validation of mathematical models that stands as the major bottleneck of
reliable computer predictions. Uncertainty of input data represents a
major feature of validation processes and must be quantified if models
are to be judged valid or invalid. Examples are given from solid
mechanics and heat transfer that demonstrate validation processes
employing stochastic models and fuzzy set theories.</p>},
