Taguchi's emphasis on instilling quality at the design stage has been important in a number of situations and deserves careful attention. His specific robust design approach has yielded good results in many instances, but recent studies indicate that more classical designs can serve the same purposes-sometimes, at least, doing so more efficiently, albeit less understandably for the technically ...

the three methods of design of experiment: taguchi ,classic and shainin can solve quality problem ,diagnosis the roots of quality problem and make improvement . to use of these methods ,we should recognize the strengths and weakness of them. recognizing notes of these methods by comparison with a case study ,we will understand them deeper. in this study three mentioned methods were compared aft...

Resistance spot welding process is one of the very useful and widely utilized joining processes in automobile industry due to its high working speed, high productivity, flexibility and economical cost operation. In this paper various optimization techniques like Taguchi method, Artificial neural network (ANN), Genetic algorithm (GA) etc. and their applications are discussed to get the optimum w...

This paper describes the tool life prediction model with end milling EN31 tool steel using P30 Tungsten uncoated carbide tool. The data set from the Taguchi method design is taken. For discussion the effects of cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut on tool life of P30 are considered. This paper suggests a novel technique for the tool wear measurement based on machine vision. Tool images are...

Vacuum brazing products have excellent joining quality, less deformation and fewer residual stresses. The vacuum brazing technique has significant effect on the microstructure and property of the aluminum brazed joint, but there is little discussion about the optimization of the process. This study investigates how different process parameters affect the tensile properties of 6061-T6 aluminum v...

In this study mix proportion parameters of lightweight foamed concrete (LWFC) are analyzed by using the Taguchi’s experiment design methodology for optimal design. For that purpose, mixtures are designed in L16 orthogonal array with five factors, namely, Microwave Incinerated Rice Husk Ash (MIRHA) contents, water cementitious ratio (w/c), sand cement ratio (s/c), superplasticizier (SP) content,...

Fused deposition modeling (FDM) is one of the most used additive manufacturing processes in current time. Predicting impact different 3D printing parameters on quality printed parts critical challenges facing researchers. The present paper aims to examine effect three FDM process parameters, namely velocity, extrusion temperature, and raster orientation bending strength, stiffness, deflection a...

Custom microsystems are expensive, innexible, and unsuitable for high-volume production. We address this problem by leveraging hardware/software co-design principles to design reconngurable composite microsystems. We partition the system design parameters into nonre-conngurable and reconngurable categories. In this way, the operational exibility is enhanced and the microsys-tems are designed fo...

With the growing commercialization of watermarking techniques in various application scenarios it has become increasingly important to quantify the performance of watermarking products. The quantification of relative merits of various products is not only essential in enabling further adoption of the technology by society as a whole, but will also drive the industry to develop testing plans/met...
