Composite Material Testing – The Challenges of Batch-to-Batch Variation and How to Manage Them
29th June 2018 Elliot Fleet
Statistics is a branch of mathematics that deals with managing data and evaluating logically how well it fits a preconceived pattern or model. Similarly a large part of composites R&D and materials science is concerned with generating data and using it to support a hypothesis. The use of statistical methods is therefore absolutely critical to […]
