  • Recently, uncertainty of measurement became a major concern for the people working on the laboratory evaluation and accreditation. 'uncertainty of measurement is a parameter associated with the result of a measurement that characteristics the dispersion of the value that could reasonably be attributed to the measured.' This study analysed how to estimate uncertainty of measurement in mechanical characteristic exam for Plastic material. its uncertainty was estimated according to International Organization for Standardization(ISO), they were named to A type uncertainty, B type uncertainty, combined standard uncertainty, and expanded uncertainty. We obtained that the combined standard uncertainty was 0.96697 MPa and the expanded uncertainty was 2.291MPa.

  • The new piston prover was developed and the flow measurement uncertainty of this piston prover was evaluated according to ISO/IEC 17025. The laser interferometer was employed to measure accurately the testing time. Uncertainty was calculated with evaluation of various uncertainty factors affected in flow measurement. The expanded uncertainty(U) of the piston Over was $1.3{\times}10^{-3}$ (at the confidence level of $95\%$). This evaluation example will be useful in flow measurement uncertainty determination of other gas flow measurement system.

  • The concept of measurement uncertainty has been recognised for many years since "Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement" was published 1993 by ISO. This study firstly propose the mathematical model to evaluate uncertainty considering the dispersion of samples because the mathematical model of a measurement is an important to evaluate uncertainty, and it must contains every quantify which contribute significantly to uncertainty in the measurement result. Secondly the standard uncertainty of the result of a measurement, namely combined standard uncertainty is evaluated using the law of propagation of uncertainty, what is termed in GUM method. In GUM method, a measurand is usually approximated by a linear function of its variables by the transforming its input quantities. Furthermore central limit theorem is applied to the input quantity. However the mathematical model of a measurement is generally not always a linearity function, and a distribution function of input or output quantity is not necessarily normal distribution. Then, in some cases GUM method is not favorable to evaluate a measurement uncertainty. Therefore this study propose a new method and its algorithm which use the Monte-carlo simulation to evaluate a measurement uncertainty in both case of linearity or non-linearity function. function.

  • Because of both precise measurement and efficient quality control, coordinate measuring machines(CMMs) have been widely used in the industry. The purpose of this paper is to present a method to estimate the CMM measurement uncertainty using design of experiments. A factorial design is applied to carry out the performance test proposed by ISO 10360 and to investigate CMM measurement errors associated to orientation and length of the length bar. In order to assess the measurement uncertainty for the performance test, an analysis of the uncertainty components that make up the uncertainty budget has been carried out. The procedure for evaluating the uncertainty of it follows GUM ("Guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement"). The results show that the proposed method is suitable to investigate CMM performance and determine the contribution of machine variables to measurement uncertainty.

  • Monte Carlo simulation(MC) method was used as an uncertainty assessment tool for gas flow measurement in this paper. Uncertainty sources for gas flow measurement were analyzed, and probability distribution characteristics of each source were discussed. Detailed MC methodology was described including the effect of the number of simulation. The uncertainty result was compared with that of the conventional sensitivity coefficient method, and it was revealed that the results were different from each other for this particular gas flow measurement case of which the modelling equation was nonlinear. The MC was comparatively simple, convenient and accurate as an uncertainty assessment method, especially in cases of complex, nonlinear measurement modelling equations. It was noted that the uncertainty assessment method should be selected carefully according to the mathematical characteristics of the measurement.

  • Evaluation of uncertainty is an ongoing process that can consume time and resources. It can also require the service of someone who is familiar with data analysis techniques. Therefore, it is important for laboratory personnel who are approaching uncertainty analysis for the first time to be aware of the resources required. International inclination of measurement filed to guarantee the traceability and confidence of measurement results discards the error concept and instead analyzes the measurement uncertainty. In this paper, we analyzed the elements of measurement uncertainty on surface roughness test which are the important things in mechanical parts test. Repeat the test by 3 men, the measurement uncertainty could be calculated.

  • This study deals an estimation method of thrust measurement uncertainty in solid rocket motors. Guidelines of the force measurement uncertainty estimation have been provided by ISO, domestic and international organizations. However, all of them are described by focusing on the force calibration machines and force transducers with a conceptually-driven way. Thus the guidelines cannot be directly applicable to uncertainty estimation of calibration equation and its linear approximation, which are critical error sources in the thrust measurement. In this paper, the equations taking into account effects of both error sources are derived based on fundamental concepts of measurement uncertainty. These are applied to the real thrust measurement system where a relatively simple estimation method for the thrust measurement uncertainty is proposed.

  • In our previous articles, an approach has been proposed for the evaluation of the uncertainty of overall result from multiple measurements. In the approach, uncertainty sources were classified into two groups: the first including those giving same 'systematic' effect on each individual measurement and the second including the others giving 'random' effect on each individual measurement and causing a variation among individual measurement results. The arithmetic mean of the replicated measurements is usually assigned as the value for the overall result. Uncertainty of the overall result is determined by separately evaluating and combining an overall uncertainty from sources of the 'systematic' effect and another overall uncertainty from sources of the 'random' effect. This conceptual approach has been widely adopted in chemical metrology society. In this study, further logical proof with more detailed mathematical expressions is provided on the approach.

  • Multi-path ultrasonic Sow measurement system uncertainty is determined by assigning an expected error of each component of flow measurement and then defining the total flow measurement uncertainty as square root of the sum of squared values of the individual error. Sources of uncertainty for flow measurement are geometry, transit time and velocity profile integration uncertainty. A theoretical uncertainty model for multi-path ultrasonic transit time flowmeter configured with parallel 5 chords, is derived from and calculated by dry calibration method.
