Once the fundamentals of quality control are established, \u003ci\u003eQuality Control Applications\u003c\/i\u003e goes on to develop this knowledge and explain how to apply it in the most effective way. Techniques are described and supported using relevant, real-life, case studies to provide detail and clarity for those without a mathematical background. Among the many practical examples, two case studies dramatize the importance of \u003ci\u003equality assurance\u003c\/i\u003e: A shot-by-shot analysis of the errors made in the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster; and the engineering failure with new technology due to the absence of quality control in an alternative energy project.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis clear and comprehensive approach makes \u003ci\u003eQuality Control Applications\u003c\/i\u003e an essential reference for those studying engineering as well industry professionals involved in quality control across product and system design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-08-08\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781447129653\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4471-2966-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 332\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer London","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50091252613260,"sku":"9781447129653","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781447129653.jpg?v=1779507908","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781447129653","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
