yarn: Yarn tensile strength experiment

Description

The data set yarnred is from a team project to investigate the effect

of count number and yarn type on the tensile strength of yarn. The Uster

Tensorapid 3, a standard machine for measuring tensile strength, was used

to take 10 measurements of strength from each of 6 yarn cones (one of each

type and count, 10 feet between measurements on each cone).

Arguments

Format

A data frame with 60 observations on the following 3 variables.

count

: thread count (24 or 36)

type

: yarn type (AirJet, OpenEnd or Ring)

tensile

: tensile strength
