The fundamental concepts of metrology are discussed, and it is explained how metrology is capable of quantifying the reliability of measurement results and thereby contributing to appropriate decision making. With the aid of the presented case studies, this book will assist readers in understanding how legal decisions should be made in the presence of uncertainty. Areas covered in those studies include breath alcohol concentration analysis, and DNA profiling. Nowadays, decisions in most legal cases are based on evidence obtained through scientific analysis involving the acquisition of accurate measurements. Against this background, Forensic Metrology will be of value for lawyers and judges in both civil and common law countries, as well as engineers and other scientists with an interest in the subject. 001450646 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001450646 650_0 $$aForensic sciences. 001450646 650_0 $$aMetrology. 001450646 650_0 $$aEvidence (Law) 001450646 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001450646 7001_ $$aScotti, Veronica,$$eauthor. 001450646 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aFerrero, Alessandro.$$tForensic metrology.$$dCham : Springer, 2022$$z9783031146183$$w(OCoLC)1346519699 001450646 830_0 $$aResearch for development (Series) 001450646 852__ $$bebk 001450646 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-14619-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001450646 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1450646$$pGLOBAL_SET 001450646 980__ $$aBIB 001450646 980__ $$aEBOOK 001450646 982__ $$aEbook 001450646 983__ $$aOnline 001450646 994__ $$a92$$bISE
