− The Laboratory of Biometrology of PUCRio has been developing magnetic field transducers to be used in biomedical applications. Investigations recently accomplished indicate the possibility of a new research line, which considers the changes in the phase characteristics of Giant Magnetoimpedance (GMI) sensors due to varying low-intensity magnetic fields. In spite of being less explored in the ...

XIX IMEKO World Congress

− An automatic test system for clinical electrical thermometers was developed to enhance the efficiency of error tests. Besides the temperature measurement unit, mechanical drive and machine vision units were designed to implement automatic tests. An uncertainty analysis was also presented. According to the special measurement action of clinical thermometers, the Monte Carlo method was used to ...

Vacuum technology is one of the established advanced technologies, of present age, in the field of research and industry. Having numerous applications, in the areas of human activities, one is concerned with a relatively large vacuum chamber where pressure distribution is, usually, not uniform during dynamic gas flow. To minimize the pressure non-uniformities in such chambers, baffles are gener...

− The measurement of air shock wave pressure is a typical problem of transient measurement. Because the measurement data in many cases is used to judge the quality of a product, or as a basis for changes being made during a development phase, uncertainty analysis or assessment of measurement data takes a very important role in the process of reporting experimental results. It is very difficult ...
