A Practical Handbook on Measurement Uncertainty (eBook, ePUB)

FAQs and fundamentals for metrologists

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In the field of metrology, measurement uncertainty has a special place of its own since "No measurement result is complete without explicit statement about its uncertainty". Hence for all accredited laboratories, evaluation of measurement uncertainty is a mandatory requirement. The purpose of the book is to clarify the rationale behind certain assumptions or ideas in measurement uncertainty, present the concepts from practical perspective, help readers arrive at a realistic uncertainty figure and be a ready-reference hand-book. The book can serve as a quick reference book on basic concepts in measurement uncertainty. The book is written in a manner so that practicing metrologists can open any chapter and start reading. The topics covered are applicable across all fields of scientific measurements.

Key Features:

• A ready-reference practical hand-book
• Clarifies the rationale behind certain assumptions or ideas
• Presents the concepts from practical perspectives
• Provides insight, examples and case studies
• Helps readers get answers to FAQs

In those companies, he served in various sections including Production, Quality, R&D, Testing and Marketing. He was instrumental in bringing down rejection of certain capacitors from over 40% down to 5% by radical changes in manufacturing process through measurement assurance and using QC tools. In a UPS manufacturing firm, he was Project manager for supply of a unique UPS to India's ambitious missile system. Since 1995, Swanand has been with the Electronics Test & Development Centre (ETDC), Pune, India; a Test and Calibration laboratory under STQC Directorate, Ministry of Electronics & IT, Government of India. He was In-charge of Calibration lab when ETDC got its first accreditation in 2002 for Electrical and Thermal calibration and significantly contributed to establishing the Quality system as per ISO/IEC 17025. Currently he is working as Head (QA & Training) in ETDC, Pune. Since 1998 he has taught in courses and seminars conducted by ETDC on Calibration (Electrical and Thermal), Laboratory Management per ISO/IEC 17025, Measurement Uncertainty and Certified Calibration Professional. He has published a few papers in national and international journals/conferences. He was also a faculty member for a Contact-Session courses on Statistical Process Control (SPC) for MS (Quality Management) programme for post-graduate students of Birla Institute of Technology & Science, Pilani, India. He was a regular guest-lecturer in engineering colleges on subjects such as Measurements, Testing and Calibration; QMS and was also an external Project examiner. He was a member of 'Syllabus Review committee' for engineering courses and is also an ISO 9000 Lead Assessor.
