GUM, the internationally approved technique for calculating measurement uncertainty, is reliant on the availability of a certified reference sample. Likewise, to find any repeatable offset (systematic ...

Performing a measurement uncertainty calculation is often seen as problematic. One of the barriers to be overcome in the wider application of measurement uncertainty (MU) to reportable values is the ...

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 ...

This two-day course gives an introduction to the theory and practice of calculating Uncertainty of Measurement for chemical analysis of foods. The approach to Uncertainty measurement will follow the ...

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 ...

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 ...

WINTERTHUR, SWITZERLAND—The Kistler Group—a global provider of dynamic measurement technoogy— announces the launch of KiXact. This is the first technology that enables measurement uncertainty to be ...

One of the most important—and famous—results in quantum mechanics is the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle (HUP). What is less known (at least to non-physicists) is that the HUP exists in two versions.
