This paper presents the application of Taguchi approach in investigating the performance of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) with respect to drop rates. The performance of MANETs was influenced very much by the routing protocol designs and quantitative factors such as network size, terrain, pause-time, node speed, transmission range, traffic load, and packet rates. The NS-2 simulator was used fo...

Abstract CO 2 single-gas permeance has been studied in the present work by ssz-13 membrane. SEM was used to characterize membranes. Feed flow rate, pressure, Sweep gas rate as parameters, and these factors varied at five levels with an orthogonal array of L 25 . Applying Taguchi experimental design allowed examine impact most important parameters on membrane permeabilit. had biggest effect feed...

Cationic copolymer gels of acrylamide and [(methacrylamido) Propyl] trimethyl ammonium chloride (MAPTAC) were synthesized by free radical aqueous solution polymerization. The Taguchi method, a robust experimental design, was employed for the optimization of the synthesis based on the equilibrium swelling capacity of the hydrogels. Based on Taguchi method a standard L16 orthogonal array with fiv...

The optimization of process parameters the nanofluid preparation for maximum stability and high heat transfer is an active important area research. In this work, effect surfactant material, weight, ultrasonication time are studied on distilled water-based CuO, Fe3O4, CuO+Fe3O4 nanofluids. Taguchi L9 orthogonal array was used design experiment 9 samples were prepared using array. each level para...

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a computational technology that enables researchers to study the dynamics of things that flow. By using CFD, it is possible to build a computational model that represents a system under study. It not only predicts fluid flow behavior, but also the transfer of heat, mass, phase change, chemical reaction, mechanical movement, and stress or deformation of ...

Formulation process is a very complex activity which sometimes implicates taking decisions about parameters or variables to obtain the best results in a high variability or uncertainty context. Therefore, robust optimization tools can be very useful for obtaining high quality formulations. This paper proposes the optimization of different responses through the robust Taguchi method. Each respon...

In this paper, wire electric discharge machining (WEDM) of Titanium alloy (Ti-4.5Al-2V) is studied. In WEDM, the prime objective in cutting operation is to achieve the highest possible cutting speed along with desirable surface finish without sacrificing productivity. It is evident that a high material removal rate and a very good surface finish can never be achieved simultaneously in WEDM. Sel...
