UNC103 - Intermediate Uncertainty Analysis

The previous courses in this series, UNC101 and UNC102, are part of the foundation required for uncertainty analysis. This course gives an overview of uncertainty calculation and its use in tolerance generation. This course finishes the foundation, and the remaining courses in this section of the course catalog give details for specific types of techniques used in uncertainty analysis.

• Introduction
• Theoretical Foundation
  • The concept of standard uncertainty
  • The concept of covariance
  • The Central Limit Theorem
• Uncertainty Estimation
  • "Law of Propagation of Uncertainty"
  • When first-order terms vanish
  • The use of curve fitting and residuals
  The use of Monte-Carlo simulation
• Tolerance Generation
  • Guard Band Generation
  • Drift Allowance
    • The use of historical data
    • The use of drift specifications
