5. Sensor error causes and limitations
Measurement errors can come from a variety of sources:
parasitic forces exerting their effects directly on the flail;
effects related to the sensor environment ;
instrumental errors directly linked to the sensor;
sample and packaging.
5.1 Errors due to parasitic forces
5.1.1 Archimedean or aerostatic thrust
