Fundamentals of Probability and Statistics for Engineers

This textbook differs from others in the field in that it hasbeen prepared very much with students and their needs in mind,having been classroom tested over many years. It is a true"learner's book" made for students who require adeeper understanding of probability and statistics. Itpresents the fundamentals of the subject along with concepts ofprobabilistic modelling, and the process of model selection,verification and analysis. Furthermore, the inclusion of morethan 100 examples and 200 exercises (carefully selected from a widerange of topics), along with a solutions manual for instructors,means that this text is of real value to students andlecturers across a range of engineering disciplines. Key features: * Presents the fundamentals in probability and statistics alongwith relevant applications. * Explains the concept of probabilistic modelling and the processof model selection, verification and analysis. * Definitions and theorems are carefully stated and topicsrigorously treated. * Includes a chapter on regression analysis. * Covers design of experiments. * Demonstrates practical problem solving throughout the book withnumerous examples and exercises purposely selected from a varietyof engineering fields. * Includes an accompanying online Solutions Manual forinstructors containing complete step-by-step solutions to allproblems.
