A reliable assessment of measurement uncertainty in calibration services is an essential qualitative requirement for any calibration laboratory. While general guidance on the estimation of measurement ...

Monte Carlo methods have emerged as a crucial tool in the evaluation of measurement uncertainty, particularly for complex or non-linear measurement systems. By propagating full probability ...

The technique which is recommended by the regulatory bodies ISO (International Organisation for Standardisation) and BIPM (Bureau International des Poids et Mesures) is one of the most comprehensive ...

Accuracy is a desirable aspect which is conceptually well defined. There are some definitions available for ‘accurate measurement’ in the ISO vocabulary of metrology terms. According to them, a ...

Evaluation of accuracy (trueness) in a normal environment includes the three errors of sensitivity, linearity, and eccentricity, and the acceptance criterion, 0.10%, according to the error propagation ...

The rules of statistical physics address the uncertainty about the state of a system that arises when that system interacts with its environment. But they've long missed another kind. In a new paper, ...
