%X Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) is highly requested in computational modeling and simulation, especially in an industrial context. With the continuous evolution of modern complex systems demands on quality and reliability of simulation models increase. A main challenge is related to the fact that the considered computational models are rarely able to represent the true physics perfectly and demonstrate a discrepancy compared to measurement data. Further, an accurate knowledge of considered model parameters is usually not available. e.g., fluctuations in manufacturing processes of hardware components or noise in sensors introduce uncertainties which must be quantified in an appropriate way. Mathematically, such UQ tasks are posed as inverse problems, requiring efficient methods to solve. This work investigates the influence of model discrepancies onto the calibration of physical model parameters and further considers a Bayesian inference framework including an attempt to correct for model discrepancy. A polynomial expansion is used to approximate and learn model discrepancy. This work extends by discussion and specification of a guideline on how to define the model discrepancy term complexity, based on the available data. Application to an electric motor model with synthetic measurements illustrates the importance and promising perspective of the method
