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\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dimitris N.
