what are the role of statistics in engineering field?

Question

I have to pass this up.this is my homework.i have to write 5pages about it.due date is next week.help.....

Answer 1

Provide waypoints to allow re-engineering.

Answer 2

Role Of Statistics In Engineering

Answer 3

1) used for research engineering at universities to test theories and experiments.
2) also used in civil engineering subfield transportation engineering to calculate what the speed limit on a given road should be. For more roads it should be set at what 85% of the speeds collected are (85 percentile).

Personally this is all I can think of right now. You might want to google "engineering statistics and probability" and you may find some good information from a university class website. Good luck

Answer 4

By far the most widespread use of statistic in engineering is in quality control. Samples of product are taken, measurements made, distributions determined, deviations calculated, etc. In fact, the field is called "Statistical Process Control".

Answer 5

I went through statistical processing in college... was the dumbest damned class I had to take.

The reasoning is to see where flaws can appear in manufacturing... times, days, months and finding patterns to take out money losses... Now, how to get 5 pages from that - I don't know.

Answer 6

Huge. Statistics are used in any type of process development, definition, control, and analysis. This is especially crucial in developing processes where the limits or margin of error is tight.
Statistics are used extensively in semi-conductor, aerospace, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and robotics industries, to name a few.
DOE, design of experiments, and SPC, statistical process control, are two types of statistical analysis used frequently.
Check out the internet using DOE and SPC for your searches and you can check it out yourself.
