  • Intro to Measurement Uncertainty 2011
    Measurement Uncertainty and Significant Figures There is no such thing as a perfect measurement. Even doing something as simple as measuring the length of a pencil with a ruler is subject to limitations that can affect how close your measurement is to its true value. For example, you need to consider the clarity and accuracy of the scale on the ruler. What is the smallest subdivision of the ruler scale? How thick are the black lines that indicate centimeters and millimeters? Such ideas are important in understanding the limitations of use of a ruler, just as with any measuring device. The degree to which a measured quantity compares to the true value of the measurement describes the accuracy of the measurement. Most measuring instruments you will use in physics lab are quite accurate when used properly. However, even when an instrument is used properly, it is quite normal for different people to get slightly different values when measuring the same quantity. When using a ruler, perception of when an object is best lined up against the ruler scale may vary from person to person. Sometimes a measurement must be taken under less than ideal conditions, such as at an awkward angle or against a rough surface. As a result, if the measurement is repeated by different people (or even by the same person) the measured value can vary slightly. The degree to which repeated measurements of the same quantity differ describes the precision of the measurement. Because of limitations both in the accuracy and precision of measurements, you can never expect to be able to make an exact measurement.

  • There Is a Difference Between 10 Years Experience, and Six Months of Experience Repeated 20 Times
    CUT TIPS FROM THE CANOPY There is a difference between 10 years experience, and six months of experience repeated 20 times. That is quite a powerful concept that I was fortunate enough to learn from professional arborist, trainer, author, and all-around great guy, Tony Tresselt. The concept has stuck with me, and I find its value in the industry and life as well. If we only repeat what we learned in the first six months on a job, and do not take the initiative to continue our learning, then why should we expect to become better at what we do? We should always be looking to advance our knowledge and put it into practice in the field. Identifying opportunities and searching for a solution should be part of our thought process. Nothing wrong with using what we learned when first starting our career. After all, you have to start somewhere, but we should aim to venture out and look to further our knowledge, and not rely only on our initial training. It is easy to look at rigging and climbing gear and get lost in the multitude of new products and techniques, but how often do we look at new methods or systems for cutting and felling? A lot of injuries and fatalities occur every year, which are directly caused by some act of cutting. These casualties occur from both cutting in the tree and on the ground. Looking at climbing systems or rigging systems, we are quick to explore other options and methods because we see distinct advantages.

With this method, you do not have to reset the system to zero after turning it off and then turning it on. The position information recorded on the scale is read every time. The following three types of absolute encoders are available: electrostatic capacitance model, electromagnetic induction model and model combining the electrostatic capacitance and optical methods. These encoders are widely used in a variety of measuring instruments as the length measuring system that can generate highly reliable measurement data. Advantages: 1. No count error occurs even if you move the slider or spindle extremely rapidly. 2. You do not have to reset the system to zero when turning on the system after turning it off*1.

  • Part Ii: Procedures and Equipment for Weighing, Measuring and Recording Anthropometric Data
    PART II: PROCEDURES AND EQUIPMENT FOR WEIGHING, MEASURING AND RECORDING ANTHROPOMETRIC DATA In order to accurately reflect health status, measurements must be taken carefully using standardized techniques. The results must be recorded accurately and compared with the appropriate references. Measurements do not need to be done twice, if the one measurement is done correctly, using proper equipment and technique. If there is any doubt about the accuracy of a measurement, it should be repeated. Measuring Recumbent Length of Infants and Young Children Until age 2, children must be measured in the recumbent position. Between 2 and 3 years of age the CPA (or individual measuring the child) must decide whether a recumbent or standing measurement is most appropriate. If the child is <32”, a recumbent measurement must be used, because the charts based on standing height apply only to heights > 32”. For children 2 to 3 years of age, taller than 32”, the best guideline is to think about the physical abilities of the child. Generally, if a child can stand unassisted and follow directions for proper positioning, a standing measure should be taken. If the child cannot stand straight, a recumbent length should be measured. birth to 24 months………measure recumbent length . between 2 and 3 years of age: o if < 32”……………….measure recumbent length o if ≥ 32” if child can stand unassisted in proper position, measure standing if child cannot stand properly, measure recumbent length . over 3 years of age……………..measure standing height A. Equipment: Use a recumbent measuring board with a fixed headpiece and sliding foot piece that are both perpendicular/upright (form a 90-degree angle) to the measurement surface.

  • I Introduction to Measurement and Data Analysis
    I Introduction to Measurement and Data Analysis Introduction to Measurement In physics lab the activity in which you will most frequently be engaged is measuring things. Using a wide variety of measuring instruments you will measure times, temperatures, masses, forces, speeds, frequencies, energies, and many more physical quantities. Your tools will span a range of technologies from the simple (such as a ruler) to the complex (perhaps a digital computer). Certainly it would be worthwhile to devote a little time and thought to some of the details of \measuring things" that may have not yet occurred to you. True Value - How Tall? At first thought you might suppose that the goal of measurement is a very straightforward one: find the true value of the thing being measured. Alas, things are seldom as simple as we would like. Consider the following \case study." Suppose you wished to measure how your lab partner's height. One way might be to simply look at him or her and estimate, \Oh, about five-nine," meaning five feet, nine inches tall. Of course you couldn't be sure that five-eight or five-ten, or even five-eleven might be a better estimate. In other words, your measurement (estimate) is uncertain by some amount, perhaps an inch or two either way. The \true value" lies somewhere within a range of uncertainty and one way to express this notion is to say that your partner's height is five feet, nine inches plus or minus two inches or 69 ± 2 inches. It should begin to be clear that at least one of the goals of measurement is to reduce the uncertainty to as small an amount as is feasible and useful.

  • Comparison of Internal and External Threads Pitch Diameter Measurement by Using Conventional Methods and CMM’S
    19th International Congress of Metrology, 09001 (2019) https://doi.org/10.1051/metrology/201909001 Comparison of internal and external threads pitch diameter measurement by using conventional methods and CMM’s İ. Ahmet Yüksel1*, T. Oytun Kılınç1, K. Berk Sönmez1, and Sinem Ön Aktan1 1Department of Laboratories and Calibration Management, Roketsan Missiles Industries Inc., 06780 Ankara, Turkey Abstract. Threads are very frequent and critical connection methods of components to build final products as per desired technical requirements. As it is used for very wide numbers of applications and industries, tolerances and thread structure differ as per requirements of applied areas. After theoretical decision of threaded parts, one hard task is to manufacture this thread as required. Correct flank angle, pitch diameter, pitch, height, major/minor diameters shall be obtained to receive desired mechanical connection properties. So as a result of all importance of threaded connection, it is also important to control thread properties. In this study it is aimed to show that as a result of significant development on sensor and probing technology, Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs) are good alternatives of conventional methods by considering accuracy, time requirement, setup requirements, and ease of application. In order to evaluate competence of regular bridge type CMMs regarding simple pitch diameter measurement, results of pitch diameter from symmetric thread with 30º flank angles will be taken by 1D length measurement device and bridge type CMM to compare. Comparison of conventional methods and CMM’s result shows that CMMs also provide accurate and precise results and can be used for calibration of gages as an alternative method with a number of advantages which are shown by this study.
