ABSTRACT

This chapter demonstrates how the theory presented in the previous chapters can be applied to relevant practical problems. Four case studies are considered, in increasing order of complexity. The aim of this chapter is not so much to thoroughly describe the theory behind the four case studies or to analyse all aspects of the problems at hand, but to show how error propagation theory can be applied in practice. Thus the case studies are used to show how to apply an error analysis and how meaningful conclusions can be drawn from it.
