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 ...

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 ...

Measurement uncertainty is a critical parameter that reflects the degree of confidence in the results provided by analytical and clinical laboratories. It encompasses the evaluation of both random ...

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 ...

I previously talked about measurements (some) when I looked at the uncertainty in the distance to the Sun. One of the simple ways of determining the uncertainty of a calculated quantity is to use the ...

Test instruments such as oscilloscopes and DMMs (digital multimeters) often let you get the measurement results you need with just the press of a button. But the number on a meter's display or the ...

Quantum measurement and uncertainty relations lie at the heart of quantum mechanics, delineating fundamental limits on the precision with which non-commuting observables can be simultaneously ...

With today�s applications requiring lower and lower noise-figure amplifiers, noise-source uncertainty becomes a bigger and bigger concern. Microwave modeling ...

It’s tough to trust measurements from instruments when you don’t have a clear understanding of how their sensitivity and accuracy is derived, and many times infrared cameras fall in this category.
