Abstract Input parameters of a complex system in the probabilistic simulation are treated by means of probability
density function (PDF). The result of the simulation have also probabilistic character. Monte Carlo simulation is widely
used to obtain predictions concerning the probability of the risk. The Monte Carlo method was performed to calculate
