Product Description Now in its fourth edition, this successful book provides readers with an in-depth introduction to the theory of engineering measurements, measurement system performance, and instrumentation. Emphasis is placed on the use of uncertainty analysis in the design of measurement systems and the statistical nature of engineering variables. Readers will also gain a better understanding of concepts related to system behavior, sampling, and spectral analysis while utilizing the new interactive CD-ROM.
Test engineers need this oneNovember 18, 2000 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I used the 2nd edition of this book while in engineering labs at Clemson and now use the 2nd and now 3rd edition in my test engineering work. I find myself being able to go into it and pulling out enough information to get me going on a new test design project. The stuff on uncertainty cannot be found elsewhere and useful. One of the better real-world texts.
A must have for anyone starting out as an experimentalistMarch 7, 2007 D. Rowe(Moscow, ID) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I would recommend this book to every beginning engineer and experimentalist. The book is full of examples, derivations, and lots of questions. It does require that you actually read it to get anything out of it, but the best feature is the online material, with MATLAB programs, videos, and additional material. I have found this book is very enjoyable to teach out of, and given future opportunities I will use it much more.
No complaints here!October 4, 2008 C. Rahusen(Connecticut) I bought this textbook so I wouldn't have to pay the University's terrible prices (more than twice the price actually). I received the book in the exact same condition advertised, very promptly, and for a much better price... I'm very pleased!
GOOD BOOK GOOD BUYOctober 15, 2008 A. D. Jefferson(Port City, Louisiana) This is a book i needed for class and it came in on time from the seller and was in great condition. the book is also very helpful with examples and data for the class.
Reveiw of Theory and Design for Mechanical MeasurementsFebruary 2, 2010 Meisha Rosenberg The book came on time in the specified condition. However, this book does not see to be the most helpful authority on instrumentation. Not the sellers fault, good service.
