The component of measurement error that in replicate measurements remains constant or varies predictably. Known systematic errors are compensated by correction. VIM (JCGM 200…
The measurement error of an instrument or system at a specified measured value — the error quoted at a named point rather than over the…
The datum measurement error when the specified measured value is zero. VIM (JCGM 200:2012) 4.28 Instruments
The component of measurement error that varies unpredictably in replicate measurements, characterized by a distribution usually summarized by its standard deviation. VIM (JCGM 200…
The extreme value of measurement error, with respect to a known reference value, permitted by specifications or regulations for a given instrument. Verification confirms…
Measured quantity value minus a reference quantity value; comprises a systematic component and a random component. VIM (JCGM 200:2012) 2.16 General
Closeness of agreement between the average of infinitely many replicate measured values and a reference value. Trueness relates inversely to systematic error, not random…
…4 Uncertainty and Error Analysis in Meniscus Readings The standard deviation of replicate meniscus readings of volumetric measures provides an estimate of precision that…
…Uncertainty associated with allowable sensitivity error, u se. This procedure allows for up to 2 % error (stated by the laboratory) in the optical or…
…Sources of error and ways to eliminate the errors are discussed with the weighing procedures. The accuracy required for a measurement and the criticality…
