measurement, extremal values, minimal value of observations, maximal value of observations, uncertainty, distribution.Abstract
This paper proposes and analyses a statistical method for uncertainty evaluation of extreme values (minimal or maximal) for measurement results with significantly limited number of observations n = 3…10 and considerable deviation of observation probability density function (PDF) from normal distribution. The method is based on properties of order statistics. It can be used for the uncertainty evaluation of mechanical properties of testing products in a food industry (when minimal values of measurement results are observed) and for the investigation of a number of harmful elements (when maximal values of measurement results are observed).References
