Abstract

The paper presents calculation of measurement uncertainty for measuring hardness by use of Vickers method based on ISO Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM) and by method of Monte Carlo simulations (MCS). Finally, confirmation of correctness of measurement uncertainty calculation is obtained with participation in proficiency test.
