We perform global sensitivity analysis for parameters in a continuum energy model for ferroelectric materials, which is informed by density functional theory (DFT). Specifically, we use global sensitivity analysis to rank the sensitivity of phenomeno-logical parameters governing the Landau and electrostriction energy for single-domain ferroelectric lead titanate. These techniques include Pearson correlations constructed directly from input and output relations, Sobol sensitivity indices, and Morris indices.
