Shouldn't that be
R(%) = sqrt(F*m)/sum(k=1 to m of v_k) * 100 ?

Yes -- thank you for catching my typo.

"Relative RMS error" seems to be a popular term. I presume that's the
same thing, but I didn't find an authoritative definition.

The first hit on Google is to a book that has formulas involving only
sums of squares, rather than a straight sum (no squares) that is in
the denominator of the "scaled root of the mean square" forumula
above.

That's not it then. I did see occasional references to "scaled RMS error"
or "scaled RMS deviation", but none that came with an explanation. Maybe it
has gone out of fashion:-) Anyway, I'm out of ideas.
