This paper deals with Friction stir welding of AZ31B Mg alloy by using H13 Tool at different rotational speeds and welding speeds .Experiments were conducted according to L4 Orthogonal array which was suggested by Taguchi. Optimum parameters for optimum Tensile strength, Hardness and Ductility were found with the help of S/N ratios. Therefore optimization of input process parameter is required ...

We present an optimization procedure that uses the Taguchi method to maximize the mean stiffness and workspace of a redundantly actuated parallel mechanism at the same time. The Taguchi method is used to separate the more influential and controllable variables from the less influential ones among kinematic parameters in workspace analysis and stiffness analysis. In the first stage of optimizati...

In the present study, chitosan membranes capable of imitating permeation characteristics of diclofenac diethylamine across animal skin were prepared using cast drying method. The effect of concentration of chitosan, concentration of cross-linking agent (NaTPP), crosslinking time was studied using Taguchi design. Taguchi design ranked concentration of chitosan as the most important factor influe...

Machining of medium Brass alloy is very difficult. There are a number of parameters like cutting speed, feed and depth of cut etc. which must be given consideration during the machining of medium Brass alloy. This study investigates the effects of process parameters on Material Removal Rate (MRR) in turning of C34000. The single response optimization problems i.e. optimization of MRR is solved ...

This paper presents a self-actuating biosensor based on the piezoelectric cantilever optimized by Taguchi method for the label-free detection of specific biomoleculars. Until now, even though the optimisation of the cantilever-based biosensors have been performed by changing dimensions one by one, few researches have performed the geometric optimisation considering the overall configuration of ...

In this paper, an experiment is conducted to optimize the kerf width of wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) on Aluminum hybrid composite with Zinc coated brass wire using Taguchi method. Aluminum metal matrix composites (MMCs) reinforced with silicon carbide particulate (SiCp) find several applications due to their improved mechanical properties for a wide variety of aerospace and automo...

This paper presents the multiple response optimization of end milling parameter using grey based taguchi method.

EN31, high carbon alloy steel which achieves a high degree of hardness an...

In the hot compression test friction has a detrimental influence on the flow stress through the process and therefore, correcting the deformation curve for real behavior is very important for both researchers and engineers. In this study, a series of compression tests were simulated using Abaqus software. In this study, it has been employed the Taguchi method to design experiments by the factor...

This paper aims at optimization of process parameters for gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) of sheet samples of Aluminium alloy AA1100 using AC wave with Argon as inert gas. Tensile properties of parent and welded specimens were determined as per ASTM-E8M standard. Taguchi approach was applied to determine most influential control parameters which will yield better tensile strength of the joints ...

This paper proposes two novel beam-forming methodologies, which employ passive RF devices to enhance received signal through a passive, scattering based beam forming. Currently available backscattering systems, e.g. the radio frequency identification (RFID), suffer from a poor communication in an environment with multiple passive devices. The intermediate antennas create severe scattering envir...
