DESCRIPTION:
. In May 2011, he was awarded an Australian Learning and Teaching Council National Teaching Fellowship.Bob Frenkel is a senior experimental scientist at the Australian National Measurement Institute. A dedicated lecturer, many of his educational developments have focused on enhancing the laboratory experience of undergraduate students. Les Kirkup is Associate Professor in the School of Physics
I wish that the textbooks that I was required to buy at university were half as understandable. If you start at the beginning with a Granny Smith apple and a cup of tea, you will probably find that the cup is empty and apple core brown before you put this book downtopics are presented in a gentle conversational style with plenty of everyday examples to help you grasp the conceptsyou do not have to use the book for passive input, but can actually apply the principles and test your knowledge along the wayI find that I can truthfully recommend this book to anyone with a serious interest in measurement and uncertainties, whether they are beginner or an old hand." The Australian Metrologist, Jeffrey Tapping"Good reading as an introduction to uncertain
Good Calibration Text Amazon Customer If you are new to the area of metrology or calibration this is a good beginner's text for learning about measurement and errors. It focuses on many different calibration scenarios and does a good job of laying a foundation. I think this book is definitely manditory for any physical science/ engineering . Highly recommended book for the application of GUM mhnstr The calculation of uncertainty is an important part of my research and I obtained a copy of the ISO Guide to the Measurement of Uncertainty to help me with my calculations. However, I found the ISO publication to be difficult to follow. Although the terms in the ISO publication are defined in the append. Jimmy F. Kharas said Measurement Uncertainty. This is a book which gives you more of a theoritical aspects on measurement Uncertainty. It is more of theory then the practical aspects of Uncertainty
Measurement shapes scientific theories, characterises improvements in manufacturing processes and promotes efficient commerce. This book introduces measurement and uncertainty to second and third year students of science and engineering. This guide is also useful to professionals in industry who are expected to know the contemporary methods in this increasingly important area. Additional online resources are available to support the book at cambridge/9780521605793.. Its approach relies on the internationally recognised and recommended guidelines for calculating and expressing uncertainty (known by the acronym GUM). Detailed case studies based on typical undergraduate experiments are included to reinforce the principles described in the book. In concert with measurement is uncertainty, and students in science and engin
