Engineering statistics - Douglas C. Montgomery

Statistics is essential for solving many types of engineeringproblems. Focusing on the statistical techniques most often used inengineering practice, Montgomery, Runger, and Hubele
s Engineering Statistics, Fourth Edition
presents a wide rangeof techniques and methods that you
ll be able to call upon inyour professional capacities.

Through its three previous editions,
EngineeringStatistics
set the standard for statistical texts servingengineers. This
Fourth Edition
follows the classic
swinning approach, and provides a host of new features andimprovements that you
ll appreciate. Developed initially withsponsorship from the National Science Foundation, this revisioncovers all the major aspects of engineering statisticsincluding:

• 
  Descriptive statistics
• 
  Probability and probability distributions
• 
  Statistical tests and confidence intervals for one and twosamples
• 
  Building regression models
• 
  Designing and analyzing engineering experiments
• 
  Statistical quality control

The new edition also features numerous enhancements that helpyou grasp and absorb the material. Emphasizing data analysis andstatistical inference, the text makes use of new, crosssections ofreal engineering situations and real data sets and takes astepbystep approach so that you gain insight into the underlyingstructure of the problems as you master the problemsolvingtechniques. Notes which help you interpret results are aparticularly useful feature of the revised text.

With comprehensive integration of the PCbased statisticalsoftware Minitab and online support through WileyPLUS, this newestedition of
Engineering Statistics
will serve as a practicalintroduction for students and a reliable reference for every stageof your engineering career.
