Applications of Statistics in Engineering

Abstract

Statistics is the art of collecting information from data, and as a result, it has become a necessary tool for running modern engineering applications. It is an important tool for robustness analysis, measuring system error analysis, test data analysis, probabilistic risk assessment, etc. It also plays a significant role in producing nearly defect-free products. Some basic statistical tools which are used in engineering are discussed in this article with the aim of getting students comfortable using software to undertake statistical analysis in order to solve engineering challenges.
