Introducing the tools of statistics and probability from the ground upAn understanding of statistical tools is essential for engineers and scientists who often need to deal with data analysis over the course of their work. "Statistics and Probability with Applications for Engineers and Scientists "walks readers through a wide range of popular statistical techniques, explaining step-by-step how to generate, analyze, and interpret data for diverse applications in engineering and the natural sciences.Unique among books of this kind, "Statistics and Probability with Applications for Engineers and ""Scientists "covers descriptive statistics first, then goes on to discuss the fundamentals of probability theory. Along with case studies, examples, and real-world data sets, the book incorporates clear instructions on how to use the statistical packages Minitab(R) and Microsoft(R) Office Excel(R) to analyze various data sets. The book also features: - Detailed discussions on sampling distributions, statistical estimation of population parameters, hypothesis testing, reliability theory, statistical quality control including Phase I and Phase II control charts, and process capability indices- A clear presentation of nonparametric methods and simple and multiple linear regression methods, as well as a brief discussion on logistic regression method- Comprehensive guidance on the design of experiments, including randomized block designs, one- and two-way layout designs, Latin square designs, random effects and mixed effects models, factorial and fractional factorial designs, and response surface methodology- A companion website containing data sets for Minitab and Microsoft Office Excel, as well as JMP (R) routines and resultsAssuming no background in probability and statistics, "Statistics and Probability with Applications for Engineers and Scientists "features a unique, yet tried-and-true, approach that is ideal for all undergraduate students as well as statistical practitioners who analyze and illustrate real-world data in engineering and the natural sciences.
