Download or read book Advanced Mathematical and Computational Tools in Metrology and Testing X written by Franco Pavese and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2015-04-22 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains original and refereed contributions from the tenth AMCTM Conference (http://www.nviim.ru/AMCTM2014) held in St. Petersburg (Russia) in September 2014 on the theme of advanced mathematical and computational tools in metrology and testing. The themes in this volume reflect the importance of the mathematical, statistical and numerical tools and techniques in metrology and testing and, also keeping the challenge promoted by the Metre Convention, to access a mutual recognition for the measurement standards.
