Vibrations of Mechanical Systems
The cumulative distribution function (CDF) is a statistical tool that describes the probability that a random variable takes on a value less than or equal to a specific number. This function is essential for understanding the distribution of data in vibration analysis, as it allows for the assessment of how likely certain vibration levels are to occur over a range of values. CDFs are instrumental in determining reliability and performance metrics in engineering systems under uncertain conditions.
congrats on reading the definition of Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF). now let's actually learn it.
