following approximations for the mean and variance values of the output R.V. Y:

• The evaluation of the variance value requires the calculation of the 1o, 2o, 3o e 4o
moments and the partial derivatives of first and second orders.
• Comparing with the first order method:
• Approximations close to µz are better than those far from µz. Therefore the
variance can be worst.
• Second order method is better when the g is quadratic. 9

Classification of locations as contamined by cadmium on the basis that the E-type estimate
exceeds the critical threshold 0.8 ppm. Bottom graphs show the corresponding risks of wrongly
declaring that a location is hazardous (risk α) or safe (risk β ) 20
