MEASURAND : Length of gauge blocks
TRAVELLING STANDARDS : 10 steel gauge blocks

The aim of the data analysis is to establish the degrees of equivalence between the measurements performed by KIM-LIPI and NMIJ.

For each nominal value, the degree of equivalence between KIM-LIPI and NMIJ is given by a pair of terms, both expressed in nm:
the offset DKIM-LIPI  NMIJ = xKIM-LIPI - xNMIJ, and its expanded uncertainty (k = 2) UKIM-LIPI  NMIJ = 2(uKIM-LIPI2 + uNMIJ2)1/2.

The ratio of these two terms is also computed and presented under graphical form.
