This open-access book explores cutting-edge approaches, technologies, and strategies for effectively managing uncertainty within technical systems. While current research primarily concentrates on quantifying and analyzing uncertainty, this book emphasizes innovative approaches to mastering uncertainty across engineering design, production, and product usage. It brings together authoritative contributions from over 30 scientists, covering years of research in engineering, applied mathematics, and law. This comprehensive and multidisciplinary account provides a timely overview of theories and methods for quantifying data, model, and structural uncertainty, as well as fundamental strategies for navigating uncertainty. The book delves into key concepts like robustness, flexibility, and resilience, offering detailed explanations. All the described methods, technologies, and strategies have been thoroughly validated through extensive testing using three technical systems: the Modular Active Spring-Damper System, the Active Air Spring, and the 3D Servo Press. These systems have been developed and tested over a decade of collaborative research.

Overall, this book serves as a valuable resource for graduate students, researchers, and professionals seeking to navigate uncertainty in the broad domain of mechanical engineering. It offers practical insights and methodologies that can be applied to real-world scenarios, contributing to the advancement of knowledge and practice in this field.
