Understand and utilize the latest developments in Weibull
inferential methods
While the Weibull distribution is widely used in science and
engineering, most engineers do not have the necessary statistical
training to implement the methodology effectively. "Using the
Weibull Distribution: Reliability, Modeling, " "and Inference
"fills a gap in the current literature on the topic, introducing a
self-contained presentation of the probabilistic basis for the
methodology while providing powerful techniques for extracting
information from data.
The author explains the use of the Weibull distribution and its
statistical and probabilistic basis, providing a wealth of material
that is not available in the current literature. The book begins by
outlining the fundamental probability and statistical concepts that
serve as a foundation for subsequent topics of coverage,
including:
- Optimum burn-in, age and block replacement, warranties
and renewal theory
- Exact inference in Weibull regression
- Goodness of fit testing and distinguishing the Weibull
from the lognormal
- Inference for the Three Parameter Weibull
Throughout the book, a wealth of real-world examples showcases
the discussed topics and each chapter concludes with a set of
exercises, allowing readers to test their understanding of the
presented material. In addition, a related website features the
author's own software for implementing the discussed analyses along
with a set of modules written in Mathcad(R), and additional
graphical interface software for performing simulations.
With its numerous hands-on examples, exercises, and software
applications, "Using the Weibull Distribution "is an excellent book
for courses on quality control and reliability" "engineering at the
upper-undergraduate and graduate levels. The book also serves as a"
"valuable reference for engineers, scientists, and business
analysts who gather and interpret" "data that follows the Weibull
distribution
