    To evaluate the short- and long-term repeatability (intraobserver variation) of the renal resistive index (RI) in a pig model.Under standardized ambient conditions, short- and long-term repeatabilities were assessed by measuring the RI three consecutive times at 30-minute intervals in 14 pigs and twice 4 weeks apart in 6 pigs, respectively. Repeatability was judged according to predefined criteria, which included calculation of coefficients of variation (CVs) and repeatability coefficients combined with visual assessment and estimation of bias.Short-term repeatability was acceptable, having an average CV of 4.9% +/- 2.9% and of 6.1% +/- 4.7% in two comparisons, findings that were reiterated in the visual assessment. Long-term results were, however, less consistent, having an average CV of 8.1% +/- 6.1% and prominent scatter on the visual assessment graphs.In this study, RI measurements showed an acceptable short-term repeatability, whereas long-term results were less consistent. The components of error contributing to the modest long-term repeatability need to be investigated in studies of larger populations.

    Due to the variety of requirements across aerospace platforms, and one off projects, the repeatability of cryogenic multilayer insulation has never been fully established. The objective of this test program is to provide a more basic understanding of the thermal performance repeatability of MLI systems that are applicable to large scale tanks. There are several different types of repeatability that can be accounted for: these include repeatability between multiple identical blankets, repeatability of installation of the same blanket, and repeatability of a test apparatus. The focus of the work in this report is on the first two types of repeatability. Statistically, repeatability can mean many different things. In simplest form, it refers to the range of performance that a population exhibits and the average of the population. However, as more and more identical components are made (i.e. the population of concern grows), the simple range morphs into a standard deviation from an average performance. Initial repeatability testing on MLI blankets has been completed at Florida State University. Repeatability of five GRC provided coupons with 25 layers was shown to be +/- 8.4 whereas repeatability of repeatedly installing a single coupon was shown to be +/- 8.0. A second group of 10 coupons have been fabricated by Yetispace and tested by Florida State University, through the first 4 tests, the repeatability has been shown to be +/- 16. Based on detailed statistical analysis, the data has been shown to be statistically significant.

    Electronic noses (e-noses), artificial sensor systems generally consisting of chemical sensor arrays for the detection of volatile compound profiles, have potential applications in respiratory medicine. We assessed within-day and between-day repeatability of an e-nose made from 32 sensors in patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We also compared between-day repeatability of an e-nose, fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) and pulmonary function testing. Within-day and between-day repeatability for the e-nose was assessed in two breath samples collected 30 min and seven days apart, respectively. Repeatability was expressed as an intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). All sensors had ICC above 0.5, a value that is considered acceptable for repeatability. Regarding within-day repeatability, ICC ranged from 0.75 to 0.84 (mean = 0.80 ± 0.004). Sensors 6 and 19 were the most reproducible sensors (both, ICC = 0.84). Regarding between-day repeatability, ICC ranged from 0.57 to 0.76 (mean = 0.68 ± 0.01). Sensor 19 was the most reproducible sensor (ICC = 0.76). Within-day e-nose repeatability was greater than between-day repeatability (P < 0.0001). Between-day repeatability of FENO (ICC = 0.91) and spirometry (ICC range = 0.94–0.98) was greater than that of e-nose (mean ICC = 0.68). In patients with stable COPD, the e-nose used in this study has acceptable within-day and between-day repeatability which varies between different sensors.

    The introduction of the latest (1997) version of ISO 230-2—the ISO Standard for Repeatability and Accuracy of Positioning of Machine Tools—has changed the way we calculate Repeatability. 'Standard Uncertainty' has replaced 'Standard Deviation', and the band width has been reduced This new concept of Repeatability is examined from both a theoretical and a practical standpoint, and evidence is presented of the way results vary and what sorts of distributions of Repeatability occur in practice. The scope of accuracy measurements and the time scale are then expanded, since positioning is not the only factor controlling a machine's overall accuracy: thermal problems, in particular, are discussed Problems of maintaining Repeatability in the longer term are discussed with particular reference to installing the machine in a customer's premises. 1 The New Version of ISO 230-2 The publication in 1997 of the new version of the ISO standard ISO 230-2* for Repeatability and Accuracy has forced us to look again at what we mean by Repeatability. The old standard of 1988 had much in common with most of the other existing standards at that time: BS3800/2 (originally BS4656/16), VDI/DGQ 3441 and the old NMTBA procedure from around 1970. All these embraced the concept of Repeatability being measured as a six standard deviation spread on an assumed Normal distribution curve. Putting it very simply, this meant that we believed that nature had carefully arranged things so that we could, by measuring a few results, compute the overall Repeatability that would be expected (with 99.7% confidence) from a much larger set of data.

    The paper deals with the influence of interactions between parts and appraisers on the results of the analysis of repeatability and reproducibility of the measurement system. The appropriate interactions have been created by simulated changes of selected values measured within the framework of real gauge repeatability and reproducibility study and evaluation was performed using average and range method and analysis of variance (ANOVA). Effects of changes type and size on the results of the analysis (%EV – repeatability; %AV – reproducibility; %INT – interaction between operators and parts; %GRR – gauge repeatability and reproducibility; ndc – number of distinct categories) are compared and mechanisms of these effects are analysed.

    Variability introduced into numerical measurements by a measuring instrument is referred to as measurement instrument repeatability. Measurement instrument repeatability estimation methods exist when the measurements are repeatable. However, when measurements are destructive and repeated measurements are not possible, estimating measuring instrument repeatability is difficult since repeatability is confounded with, and usually cannot be separated from item variability. In this paper an estimator for destructive measuring instrument repeatability is obtained from measurements of two different item types, under the assumptions of constant item type measurement coefficient of variation, constant repeatability, and independent and normally distributed measurements. The estimator's variance is also derived, from which a confidence interval for repeatability can be computed. The results add to the body of existing methods that exploit some assumed pattern of item variability, or alternatively make other assumptions needed to estimate measurement instrument repeatability when repeated measurements are unavailable.
