The Poisson probability distribution‚ named after the French mathematician Siméon-Denis. Poisson is another important probability distribution of a discrete random variable that has a large number of applications. Suppose a washing machine in a Laundromat breaks down an average of three times a month. We may want to find the probability of exactly two breakdowns during the next month. This is an example of a Poisson probability distribution problem. Each breakdown is called an occurrence in Poisson

In order for patrol distribution to be effective‚ it must revolve around the goal of trying to satisfy the vast majority of citizens’ concerns within a jurisdiction (Fritsch et al.‚ 2008). Patrol allocation should be taken into consideration in order to effectively distribute the patrol. Depending on the size of a police department and its jurisdiction‚ patrol allocation can help distribute the patrol by dividing the patrol jurisdiction into different areas and assigning officers to patrol some or

Title of Experiment: Pressure distribution on an aerofoil Aim: The aim of this experiment is to examine the pressure distribution on an aerofoil and its variation with incidence. Introduction: An aerofoil is the two-dimensional cross section of a wing‚ tail or helicopter rotor blade. The lift and pitching moment on an aerofoil is determined by the pressure distribution on it. The pressure distribution changes with the angle of incidence. Understanding the behaviour of aerofoils requires some
