Bøger af Paul F Watson

The Weibull Bible by Paul F. Watson, is a Weibull statistical analysis book presenting effective data analysis methods for engineers, geologists, agricultural scientists, medical researchers and others. When Standard Normal methods prove inadequate, Weibull analysis provides a powerful alternative. This book explains both how to do analysis and why these methods work. Powerful and newly developed methods including the Linear Conjecture and others are also explained and justified. Conceptual and mathematical explanations of why Weibull methods work are based on small data set examples. Meaningful concepts and method justification are explained without relying on advanced mathematics. Mathematical proofs and other reference material is provided in appendices. Major Weibull Topics Include:Discussion of stochastic processes and dataDistinguishing between deterministic and stochastic dataDiscussion of Probability Density and Cumulative Density FunctionsPresentation of the Weibull Plot method for characterizing a populationDiscussion and examples of Weibull Plots "gone wrong"Examination of two and three parameter Weibull equationsExplanations and examples of making predictions using Weibull equationsDiscussion of Weibull Analysis used for Reliability & Maintainability EngineeringWeibull Software Introduction The Weibull Bible is intended for readers with a background that includes Calculus I, some familiarity with the Standard Normal "Bell Curve", and the ability to use spreadsheets.
