Practical Guide To Surface Metrology

by Michael Quinten

118,59€ + 10% CARD

 <p>This book offers a genuinely practical introduction to the most commonly encountered optical<b> </b>and non<b>-</b>optical systems used for the metrology and characterization of surfaces, including guidance on best practice, calibration, advantages and disadvantages, and interpretation of results. It enables the user to select the best approach in a given context.</p>Most methods in surface metrology are based upon the interaction of light or electromagnetic radiation (UV, NIR, IR), and different optical effects are utilized to get a certain optical response from the surface; some of them record only the intensity reflected or scattered by the surface, others use interference of EM waves to obtain a characteristic response from the surface. The book covers techniques ranging from microscopy (including confocal, SNOM and digital holographic microscopy) through interferometry (including white light, multi-wavelength, grazing incidence and shearing) to spectral reflectometry andellipsometry. The non-optical methods comprise tactile methods (stylus tip, AFM) as well as capacitive and inductive methods (capacitive sensors, eddy current sensors).<p></p><p>The book provides:</p><p></p><p></p><p></p><ul><li>Overview of the working principles</li><li>Description of advantages and disadvantages</li><li>Currently achievable numbers for resolutions, repeatability, and reproducibility</li><li>Examples of real-world applications</li></ul><p></p><p>A final chapter discusses examples where the combination of different surface metrology techniques in a multi-sensor system can reasonably contribute to a better understanding of surface properties as well as a faster characterization of surfaces in industrial applications. The book is aimed at scientists and engineers who use such methods for the measurement and characterization of<br>surfaces across a wide range of fields and industries, including electronics, energy, automotive and medical engineering.<br></p><p></p> <p> </p>

Quality Assured Measurement - Unification Across Social And Physical Sciences

by Leslie Pendrill

158,34€ + 10% CARD

 <p></p><p>This book presents a general and comprehensive framework for the assurance of quality in measurements. Written by a foremost expert in the field, the text reflects an on-going international effort to extend traditional quality assured measurement, rooted in fundamental physics and the SI, to include non-physical areas such as person-centred care and the social sciences more generally. Chapter by chapter, the book follows the measurement quality assurance loop, based on Deming’s work. The author enhances this quality assurance cycle with insights from recent research, including work on the politics and philosophy of metrology, the new SI, quantitative and qualitative scales and entropy, decision risks and uncertainty when addressing human challenges, Man as a Measurement Instrument, and Psychometry and Person-centred care.</p><p><i>Quality Assured Measurement: Unification across Social and Physical Sciences </i>provides students and researchers in physics, chemistry, engineering, medicine and the social sciences with practical guidance on designing, implementing and applying a quality-assured measurement while engaging readers in the most novel and expansive areas of contemporary measurement research. </p><p><br></p>

Measuring Uncertainty Within The Theory Of Evidence

by Marco Prioli e Simona Salicone

98,71€ + 10% CARD

 <div><div>This monograph considers the evaluation and expression of measurement uncertainty within the mathematical framework of the Theory of Evidence. With a new perspective on the metrology science, the text paves the way for innovative applications in a wide range of areas. Building on Simona Salicone’s <i>Measurement Uncertainty: An Approach via the Mathematical Theory of Evidence</i>, the material covers further developments of the Random Fuzzy Variable (RFV) approach to uncertainty and provides a more robust mathematical and metrological background to the combination of measurement results that leads to a more effective RFV combination method.</div><div><br></div><div>While the first part of the book introduces measurement uncertainty, the Theory of Evidence, and fuzzy sets, the following parts bring together these concepts and derive an effective methodology for the evaluation and expression of measurement uncertainty. A supplementary downloadable program allows the readers tointeract with the proposed approach by generating and combining RFVs through custom measurement functions. With numerous examples of applications, this book provides a comprehensive treatment of the RFV approach to uncertainty that is suitable for any graduate student or researcher with interests in the measurement field. </div></div><div><br></div>
