This book presents a systematic and comprehensive exposition of the
theory of measurement accuracy and provides solutions that fill
significant and long-standing gaps in the classical theory. It
eliminates the shortcomings of the classical theory by including
methods for estimating accuracy of single measurements, the most
common type of measurement. The book also develops methods of
reduction and enumeration for indirect measurements, which do not
require Taylor series and produce a precise solution to this
problem. It produces grounded methods and recommendations for
summation of errors. The monograph also analyzes and critiques two
foundation metrological documents, the International Vocabulary of
Metrology (VIM) and the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in
Measurement (GUM), and discusses directions for their revision.
This new edition adds a step-by-step guide on how to evaluate
measurement accuracy and recommendations on how to calculate
systematic error of multiple measurements. There is also an
extended section on the method of reduction, which provides an
alternative to the least-square method and the method of
enumeration. Many sections are also rewritten to improve the
structure and usability of the material. The 3rd edition reflects
the latest developments in metrology and offers new results, and it
is designed to be accessible to readers at various levels and
positions, including scientists, engineers, and undergraduate and
graduate students. By presenting material from a practical
perspective and offering solutions and recommendations for problems
that arise in conducting real-life measurements, author Semyon
Rabinovich offers an invaluable resource for scientists in any
field.
