Burgers’ equation with uncertain initial and boundary conditions is approximated using a polynomial chaos expansion approach where the solution is represented as a series of stochastic, orthogonal polynomials. Even though the analytical solution is smooth, a number of discontinuities emerge in the truncated system. The solution is highly sensitive to the propagation speed of these discontinuities. High-resolution schemes are needed to accurately capture the behavior of the solution. The emergence of different scales of the chaos modes require dissipation operators to yield accurate solutions. We will compare the results using the MUSCL scheme with previously obtained results using conventional one-sided operators.
