On the regression of sensitivity characteristics of torque transducers
ACTA IMEKO, 2020 A new method to estimate the influence of regression on the measurement uncertainty for the calibration of torque transducers will be presented in the following. This method is based on Monte Carlo simulations and on sampling calibration results. In some cases, the uncertainty contributions of regression thus obtained are considerably higher than those
