Chapter 8.1, Problem 4E
The article “Application of Analysis of Variance to Wet Clutch Engagement” (M. Mansouri, M. Khonsari, et al., Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, 2002:117–125) presents the following fitted model for predicting clutch engagement time in seconds (y) from engagement starting speed in m/s (x1), maximum drive torque in N·m (x2), system inertia in kg m2 (x3), and applied force rate in kN/s (x4):
The sum of squares for regression was SSR = 1.08613 and the sum of squares for error was SSE = 0.036310. There were 44 degrees of freedom for error.
- a. Predict the clutch engagement time when the starting speed is 20 m/s, the maximum drive torque is 17 N·m, the system inertia is 0.006 kg·m2, and the applied force rate is 10 kN/s.
- b. Is it possible to predict the change in engagement time associated with an increase of 2 m/s in starting speed? If so, find the predicted change. If not, explain why not.
- c. Is it possible to predict the change in engagement time associated with an increase of 2 N·m in maximum drive torque? If so, find the predicted change. If not, explain why not.
- d. Compute the coefficient of determination R2.
- e. Compute the F statistic for testing the null hypothesis that all the coefficients are equal to 0. Can this hypothesis be rejected?

The article “Structural Performance of Rounded Dovetail Connections Under Different Loading Conditions” (T. Tannert, H. Prion, and F. Lam, Can J Civ Eng, 2007:1600–1605) describes a study of the deformation properties of dovetail joints. In one experiment, 10 rounded dovetail connections and 10 double rounded dovetail connections were loaded until failure. The rounded connections had an average load at failure of 8.27 kN with a standard deviation of 0.62 kN. The double-rounded connections had an average load at failure of 6.11 kN with a standard deviation of 1.31 kN. Can you conclude that the mean load at failure is greater for rounded connections than for double-rounded connections?
