Abstract:
Recently, the Monte Carlo simulations (MCS) have been increasingly applied in the field of estimating the measurement uncertainties. The MCS method is based on random number generation from the probability density functions for each input value and forming of experimental probability density function of the output value. The paper presents calculation examples of the measurement uncertainty in calibration of the standard of length by using the MCS method. The MCS method is implemented for validation of the realised measurement uncertainties by GUM method in calibrating the standard of length.
