Analysis of experimental data: a general review with particular reference to Monte Carlo evaluation of sensitivities

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

We present a rather selective compact discourse on data uncertainties, evaluation of sensitivities, adjustment, and on consistency of related data sets. Its objectives are to demonstrate that these topics are interrelated, and to underline how together they serve to make the most of all available experimental data in order to produce reliable data bases for an optimal design of future systems.
