Publisher's Synopsis
Textile engineers are generally interested in studying variations occurring from material to material, test to test, sample to sample, machine to machine, time to time and place to place. Before any type of study textile engineers generally have following questions: 1. How many tests are to be carried out for getting the desired results? 2. How to analyze the results or the data collected for the purpose of the study? 3. How to interpret the results of analysis? Answers to all the above questions can be obtained with the help of this book.For studying the variations in the data and interpreting them, the textile engineer must know the theory and different methods involved in statistics. All eighteen chapters in this book discuss various statistical methods and techniques which are useful for study and analysis of textile data.This book will meet all the needs of textile professionals and textile industries in their decision making as it discusses every thing related to statistics right from basic data collection to design of experiments with suitable illustrations. Though the book is written for textile engineers, it is also useful for engineers and researchers of all other disciplines.
