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 ...

All measurements are subject to error. When a reportable value is derived from a measurement or series of measurements, this value is only an estimate of the “true ...

A program for calibration and routine testing of weighing instruments ensures accurate results. A measurement of any kind is affected by the errors and uncertainties that exist in that measurement ...

Measurements are always made for a reason – to answer a particular question or to help solve a problem. Whenever a measurement is made there will always be some uncertainty about the result due to ...

How does Thermo Fisher Scientific's analytical software support the calculation of measurement uncertainty? Wilhelm Sanders: According to DIN EN ISO 17025, it is necessary to calculate the measurement ...

In the test and measurement industry, two distinct camps exist: those who favor vector network analyzers (VNA) and those who favor time domain reflectometers (TDR). Each camp relies heavily upon its ...

Precision can be defined as the closeness in agreement of results during a series of repeat measurements under presumed identical conditions. These results are often expressed as a standard deviation.

Measurement uncertainty, as described in ISO/IEC Guide 98, is a “parameter, associated with the result of a measurement, [which] characterizes the dispersion of values that could reasonably be ...

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 ...
