Theoretical Foundations for Tuning Parameter Tolerance Design
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper a novel technique is presented to solve tolerance design problems. To achieve the desired performance tolerance the technique uses a subtle, but significant, change in the design rather than increasing component precision. This change is the addition of a tuning parameter. Statistical models are used to developed framework for the tuning parameter design method. Also developed is a new dimensionless design parameter which ranks candidate tuning parameters. The step-by-step tuning parameter design method is applied to a heavy duty manual stapler as a clarifying example.

Tuning Parameter Tolerance Design: Foundations, Methods, and Measures
In this paper, a novel technique is presented to solve tolerance design problems. To achieve the desired performance tolerance, the technique uses a subtle, but significant, change in the design: the addition of a tuning parameter in place of an increase in component precision. Statistical models are used to develop a framework for the tuning parameter design method. Also developed is a new, di...
متن کاملEfficient and Robust Parameter Tuning for Heuristic Algorithms
The main advantage of heuristic or metaheuristic algorithms compared to exact optimization methods is their ability in handling large-scale instances within a reasonable time, albeit at the expense of losing a guarantee for achieving the optimal solution. Therefore, metaheuristic techniques are appropriate choices for solving NP-hard problems to near optimality. Since the parameters of heuristi...
متن کاملStability and vibration analyses of tapered columns resting on one or two-parameter elastic foundations
This paper presents a generalized numerical method to evaluate element stiffness matrices needed for the free vibration and stability analyses of non-prismatic columns resting on one- or two-parameter elastic foundations and subjected to variable axial load. For this purpose, power series approximation is used to solve the fourth–order differential equation of non-prismatic columns with v...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Disruption Tolerance Framework for Developing High Assurance, Survivable Distributed Applications Professors
Emerging business-to-business and business-to-consumer applications are exhibiting increasing reliance on the dependability of computer and communication systems. This dependency dramatically magnifies the consequence of damages resulting from even simple system faults and intrusions, together referred to as disruptions. Although several piecemeal solutions address concerns related to the secur...
متن کاملSemantic Foundations for Survivable System Analysis and Design
A Survivability Research Agenda Survivability is the capability of an information system to support critical enterprise missions in adverse environments of attacks, failures, and accidents [Ellison et al 1999]. A research program in survivability must therefore address both systems and the environments within which they operate. Survivability is a combination of quality attributes, including se...
