challenges in defining of bouguer gravity anomaly

generally, gravity anomaly is the difference between the observed acceleration of earth's gravity and a normal value. topography (all masses above geoid) plays a main role in definition of the gravity anomaly. based on modeling of the effect of topography, there are different models of gravity anomaly such as free-air and bouguer anomaly. the main goal of the bouguer anomaly is removing of...

Issues and challenges in applicability of measurement uncertainty estimation in medical laboratories

The ISO 15189 has endorsed the use of measurement uncertainty (MU) to estimate the quantity of measurement error of a given method, although the total error (TE) approach, originally postulated by Westgard et al. in 1974, is still widely used and appreciated in laboratory medicine. Both MU and TE present some struggles, especially regarding the estimation of both bias and imprecision. In partic...
