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...

In this study, an experiment is conducted to optimize the machining parameters of the Electric Discharge Machining on EN 31 tool steel with copper as an electrode considering the performance characteristics using the Taguchi method. Performance characteristics Material Removal Rate has been chosen to evaluate the machining effects. Parameters selected in this study are Pulse on time, Pulse off ...

The control of FOPD (first order plus delay) systems with high normalized time (ratio of time delay and time constant) is a very hard task, especially when the system parameters are subjected to variations. A great number of physical systems show such model behavior. In process control today, proportional integral derivative (PID) (continuous and digital) controllers still predominate and are s...

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...

BACKGROUND Renal transplantation is the treatment of choice for chronic renal failure. Using a suitable ureterovesical anastomosis technique can prevent most of risks for kidney graft. Extravesical ureteroneocystostomy is becoming popular in renal transplantation because of the low complication rate and technical ease. The decreased complication rate is due to limited bladder dissection and the...

The Mahalanobis Taguchi System (MTS) is considered one of the most promising binary classification algorithms to handle imbalance data. Unfortunately, MTS lacks a method for determining an efficient threshold for the binary classification. In this paper, a nonlinear optimization model is formulated based on minimizing the distance between MTS Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curve and t...

Surface roughness is used to determine and evaluate the quality of a final product in turned parts. In order to get better surface finish, the proper setting of cutting parameters is crucial before the process takes place. Titanium Grade 5 material is one whose surface hardness is high and it is used for making Aerospace engine components, titanium rod and ideal materials for medical implements...

Optimization methods usually obtain the travel direction of the solution by substituting the solutions into the objective function. However, if the solution space is too large, this search method may be time consuming. In order to address this problem, this study incorporated the Taguchi method into the solution space search process of the optimization method, and used the characteristics of th...
