Applied Statistics and Probability for Engineers, Third Edition | Date: 28 April 2011, 06:32
|
This best-selling engineering statistics text provides a practical approach that is more oriented to engineering and the chemical and physical sciences than many similar texts. It's packed with unique problem sets that reflect realistic situations engineers will encounter in their working lives.
Each copy of the book includes an e-Text on CD - that is a complete electronic version of book. This e-Text features enlarged figures, worked-out solutions, links to data sets for problems solved with a computer, multiple links between glossary terms and text sections for quick and easy reference, and a wealth of additional material to create a dynamic study environment for students.
Suitable for a one- or two-term Jr/Sr course in probability and statistics for all engineering majors.

New to this Edition
Problems, examples, and exercises have all been thoroughly updated to reflect today's engineering realities.
Examples and exercises are drawn from more diverse fields such as bioengineering, environmental sciences, and computer science.
Interactive e-Text format. Includes data sets, select worked-out solutions, enlarged figures, and multiple links between glossary terms and text sections for quick and easy reference.
Hallmark Features
More Motivation. A completely revised chapter 1 gets students motivated right from the beginning.
Revised Probability Topics. The authors have revised and enhanced probability topics to promote even easier understanding.
Chapter Reorganization. Chapters on hypothesis testing and confidence intervals have been reorganized and rewritten. There is now expanded treatment of confidence intervals, prediction intervals, and tolerance intervals.
Real Engineering Applications. Treatment of all topics is oriented towards real engineering applications. In the probability chapters, the authors do not emphasize counting methods or artificial applications such as gambling.
Real Data, Real Engineering Situations. Examples and exercises throughout text use real data and real engineering situations. This motivates students to learn new concepts and gives them a taste of practical engineering experience.
Use of the Computer. Computer usage is closely integrated into the text and homework exercises.
