DESCRIPTION:
Great Intro to Weibull James E. Breneman Great introduction to the Weibull distribution. The fact that the author uses MINITAB makes this very useful for (most) engineering firms as (most) engineering firms use MINITAB From beginner to intermediate user this is a book worthy of your bookshelf
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 theoryExact inference in Weibull regressionGoodness of fit testing and distinguishing the Weibull from the lognormalInference for the Three Parameter WeibullThroughout 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. From the Back CoverUnderstand and utilize the latest developments in Weibull inferential methodsWhile

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, warrantiesand renewal theory• Exact inference in Weibull regression• Goodness of fit testing and distinguishing the Weibullfrom 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®, 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
