mittausuottaus
Mittausuottaus, also known as measurement uncertainty, refers to the doubt or lack of confidence in the result of a measurement. It is a fundamental concept in metrology, the science of measurement, and is used to quantify the reliability of measurement results. Measurement uncertainty arises from various sources, including instrument limitations, environmental conditions, and the observer's skill. It is typically expressed as a range within which the true value of the measurement is expected to lie, often with a stated confidence level, such as 95%.
There are two main types of measurement uncertainty: Type A, which is evaluated by statistical methods using
Measurement uncertainty is crucial in fields where precise measurements are essential, such as engineering, science, and
