<div>Researchers and scientists across various areas face the perennial challenge of selecting experimental conditions or inputs for computer simulations in order to achieve promising results.</div><div> The aim of conducting these experiments could be to study the production of a material that has great applicability.</div><div> One might also be interested in accurately modeling and analyzing a simulation of a physical process through a high-fidelity computer code.</div><div> The presence of noise in the experimental observations or simulator outputs, called aleatory uncertainty, is usually accompanied by limited amount of data due to budget constraints.</div><div> This gives rise to what is known as epistemic uncertainty. </div><div> This problem of designing of experiments with limited number of allowable experiments or simulations under aleatory and epistemic uncertainty needs to be treated in a Bayesian way.</div><div> The aim of this thesis is to extend the state-of-the-art in Bayesian optimal design of experiments where one can optimize and infer statistics of the expensive experimental observation(s) or simulation output(s) under uncertainty.</div>
