Sensitivity analysis is a method used to determine how different values of an independent variable affect a particular dependent variable under a given set of assumptions. This approach helps identify which variables have the most influence on outcomes, allowing for better decision-making and optimization in complex systems. By evaluating the impact of variations in inputs, it connects directly to assessing environmental impacts, optimizing designs, modeling processes, and controlling integrated systems.
congrats on reading the definition of sensitivity analysis. now let's actually learn it.
