Uncertainty in NIST Force Measurements
This paper focuses upon the uncertainty of force calibration measurements at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The uncertainty of the realization of force for the national deadweight force standards at NIST is discussed, as well as the uncertainties associated with NIST's voltage-ratio measuring instruments and with the characteristics of transducers being calibrated. T...
متن کاملUncertainty quantification in nanomechanical measurements using the atomic force microscope.
Quantifying uncertainty in measured properties of nanomaterials is a prerequisite for the manufacture of reliable nanoengineered materials and products. Yet, rigorous uncertainty quantification (UQ) is rarely applied for material property measurements with the atomic force microscope (AFM), a widely used instrument that can measure properties at nanometer scale resolution of both inorganic and ...
متن کاملUncertainty of Nist Airspeed Calibrations
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) provides calibration services for airspeed instruments. Here, we describe NIST’s recently upgraded airspeed calibration system and its uncertainty. At NIST, airspeed calibrations are performed over the range 0.15 m/s to 40 m/s in the wind tunnel that has a test cross section of 1.5 m by 2.1 m. The standard for airspeed measurement is a f...
متن کاملNIST-ASME WORKSHOP ON UNCERTAINTY IN DIMENSIONAL MEASUREMENTS Gaithersburg, MD June 5–7, 2001
While the use of measurement uncertainty in dimensional measurements, particularly uncertainty represented according to the ISO Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM), is a wellestablished practice among national metrology institutes (NMIs), is a required basis for commercial laboratory accreditation, and is being specified in international product standards, such use is ra...
متن کاملNIST Mechanisms for Disseminating Measurements
The national responsibilities assigned to the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) early in the last century for providing measurement assistance and service are carried out today by the four programs that comprise the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Office of Measurement Services (OMS). They are the Calibration Program (CP), the Standard Reference Materials Program (SRMP), ...
