Riassunto

This text for engineering students presents a tutorial of measurement uncertainty methods, covering correlation, curve-fitting problems, probability plotting, combining results from different test methods, calibration errors, and uncertainty propagation for both independent and dependent error sources. The text is structured for self-study, with material divided into eight units. Each unit contains learning objectives, example problems, and exercises. Some 60 pages of appendices provide a glossary, nomenclature, references tables, examples, and explained solutions to all exercises. This fourth edition incorporates the new uncertainty technologies embodied in both US and international standards, and analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of both. Special attention is drawn to the problem of developing confidence in uncertainty analysis results and using measurement uncertainty to select instrumentation systems. The book can be used as a text for students with two years of training in engineering or science and background in calculus. It can also serve as a practical desk reference for test engineers, process engineers, control engineers, and plant supervisors. Author information is not given.
