Statistical analysis finds a wide range of applications in scientific research, management, finance, and engineering. In this article, we aim at shedding some light on the significance of two tools of statistical analysis, namely ANOVA and regression, in civil (including environmental), mechanical, and architectural engineering disciplines through a short survey of recent research studies that utilized these tools to reach important engineering models or rules of interest to engineers for design or development. The studies represent diverse areas of traffic planning, residential energy, indoor air quality, and high-speed machining. We briefly present some sample selection rules and analysis outcomes in these studies.
