Examples of BIPM in a sentence

  • Each Party shall ensure, to the extent practicable, the documented traceability of its standards and the calibration of its measuring instruments, according to the recommendations of the Bureau International des Poids et Measures (BIPM) and the International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML), and comply with the requirements set out in this Chapter.

  • Each Party shall, as far as practicable, ensure the traceability of its metrological standards in accordance with the recommendations of the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) and the International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML), complying with the principles established in this Chapter.

  • The asterisks and notes were added by the BIPM to make the text more understandable.

  • This was, and still is, kept at the BIPM under the conditions specified by the 1st CGPM (1889, CR, 34-38) when it sanctioned the prototype and declared that “this prototype shall henceforth be considered to be the unit of mass”.

  • The original international prototype of the metre, which was sanctioned by the 1st CGPM in 1889 (CR, 34-38), is still kept at the BIPM under conditions specified in 1889.

  • At the 1st CGPM (1889), after calibration against the international prototype, most of these “national prototypes” were individually assigned to Member States of the Metre Convention, and some also to the BIPM.

  • The work contributing to this objective therefore fell into two parts: the derivation of optimised frequency values for secondary representations of the second (section 4.4.1) and the collection and submission of optical clock data for use by the BIPM in computing TAI (section 4.4.2).

  • To incorporate optical clocks into international timescales as secondary representations of the second, via the submission of data to the BIPM.

  • The objective of incorporating optical clocks into international timescales as secondary representations of the second, via the submission of data to the BIPM, was achieved, with the target number of submissions being met.
