In computational materials science, mechanical properties are typically extracted from simulations by means of analysis routines that seek to mimic their experimental counterparts. However, simulated data often exhibit uncertainties that can propagate into final predictions in unexpected ways. Thus, modelers require data analysis tools that (i) address the problems posed by simulated data, and (ii) facilitate uncertainty quantification. In this manuscript, we discuss three case studies in materials modeling where careful data analysis can be leveraged to address specific instances of these issues. As a unifying theme, we highlight the idea that attention to physical and mathematical constraints surrounding the generation of computational data can significantly enhance its analysis.
