UNC401 - Advanced Uncertainty Analysis
This is an advanced course on uncertainty analysis. It assumes the student has knowledge of both calculus and basic probability theory. The course basically covers the same material as UNC103, but from a more advanced viewpoint.
The course outline is as follows:
- Introduction
- Review
- The Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF)
- The Probability Density Function (PDF)
- Type A and Type B uncertainty analysis
- The law of propagation of uncertainties
- Test Uncertainty Ratio (TUR)
- Standard Uncertainty Calculation
- Normal Distribution
- Uniform Distribution
- Triangular Distribution
- U-Shaped Distribution
- Other Distributions
- Covariance
- Monte Carlo Simulation
- Coverage Factor and Expanded Uncertainty
- Risk Calculation
- Review of Conditional Probabilities
- Background
- Applicability to Calibration
- Guard Band Generation
- Subtract Measurement Uncertainty
- RSS Guard Band
- NCSLI RP-10 Method
- ANSI Z540.3
- Managed Risk Guardband (M. Dobbert)
- Reliability, Interval, and Drift Allowance
- Summary
