ON THE NECESSITY OF DYNAMIC CALIBRATION FOR IMPROVED TRACEABILITY OF MECHANICAL QUANTITIES

Sascha Eichstädt, Trevor J. Esward, André Schäfer

Abstract

Dynamic calibration still poses many challenges for measurement and data analysis. However, we show that without a proper dynamic calibration misleading results are obtained as static calibration approaches to dynamic measurement applications are inappropriate. We illustrate expected improvement in uncertainties when dynamic calibration information is available, and we conclude that further research in this direction is necessary in order to improve measurement capabilities and reliability.
