This paper presents a framework to apply such ideas to analysis of dynamical systems. A set of tools that can be used for uncertainty analysis of dynamical Modelica models is presented. These tools are made available in the FMI Toolbox for MATLAB. The workflow and tools are demonstrated on a cooling loop design problem.
