The second edition stressed that the procedures introduced by a laboratory to estimate its measurement uncertainty should be integrated with existing quality assurance measures, since these measures frequently provide much of the information required to evaluate the measurement uncertainty.
1 lis 2016 · The paper presents examples of the evaluation of uncertainty components in accordance with the current and revised Guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement (GUM).
This report was prepared by a Eurolab expert group on measurement uncertainty, affiliated to the Eurolab Technical Committee on Quality Assurance in Testing (TCQA), that was established for this purpose and disbanded after completing the work.
The ‘Guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement’ (GUM) establishes general rules for evaluating and expressing uncertainty in measurement from the shop floor to fundamental research.
This suite of examples illustrates good practice in evaluating measurement uncertainty in a variety of fields including calibration, testing, comparison and conformity, and relate to sectors that include environment, energy, quality of life, industry and society.
In this article, we distinguish between the use of an expression of uncertainty as information for the recipient of a measurement result and its use when propagating uncertainty about inputs to a measurement model in order to derive the uncertainty in a measurand.
