In this study, Taguchi method was used to identify the several factors that may affect the performance of Destination Sequence Distance Vector (DSDV) routing protocol. The performance of DSDV routing protocol in mobile ad hoc networks were greatly influence by factors such as node speed, node pause time and traffic load. Problem statement: By using orthogonal experimental design and analysis te...

The various process parameters affecting the quality characteristics of the shock absorber during the process were identified using the Ishikawa diagram and by failure mode and effect analysis. The identified process parameters are welding process parameters (squeeze, heat control, wheel speed, and air pressure), damper sealing process parameters (load, hydraulic pressure, air pressure, and ...

In this paper, factorial design experiments and Taguchi methods have been used to monitor the quality of the incoming raw material, product quality during processing, and the final product quality of a process industry. The data collected and results obtained are presented and discussed. The analysis made on the experimental results provided information to improve the quality of the process ind...

This report is intended to facilitate dialogue between engineers and optimizers about the eeciency of Taguchi methods for robust design, especially in the context of design by computer simulation. Three approaches to robust design are described: 1. Robust optimization, i.e. specifying an objective function f and then minimizing a smoothed (robust) version of f by the methods of numerical optimi...

Burnishing is cold working process where hard roller are being pressed against irregular surface, so that surface finish and the micro hardness increases. In this study internal roller burnishing tool is used to burnish the drilled hole. Speed, feed, and number of passes have been varied using taguchi method to examine the surface finish and microhardness. Anova analysis is carried out. Surface...

A previous study has shown the successful application of Taguchi method in both direct and indirect perspectives to compute optimal parameters during turning Inconel x-750 alloy. The deployed signal-to-noise ratios minimize output surface roughness, tool wear cutting force but machining economic were not mentioned. Yet, techno-economic dimension aids profitable adjustments operations. To correc...

The challenge of recent machining industries is reduce lead time and increase production rate in order to maintain their competitiveness. This paper investigates the machinability of mild steel in turning process perform on conventional lathe machine. Twoparameters like tool rake angle and feed are varied to investigate their effect on material removal rate. An attempt has been made to model th...

The multiobjective design of digital filters using the powerful Taguchi optimization technique is considered in this paper. This relatively new optimization tool has been recently introduced to the field of engineering and is based on orthogonal arrays. It is characterized by its robustness, immunity to local optima trapping, relative fast convergence and ease of implementation. The objectives ...

This paper presents the solution of economic power dispatch (EPD) through the application of genetic algorithm (GA) and the taguchi method. The economic power dispatch is a non-linear optimisation problem with several constraints. The objective of the proposed genetic algorithm combined taguchi method is to choose the most efficient combination of Pc (crossover probability), Pm (mutation probab...

Design of experiments (DOE) methods are very commonly used for process validation. In this study, we employed the Taguchi approach in order to develop an optimal process for the maximization of oscillatory shear stress environments (OSS). OSS has been associated with increase in cellular activity and has been linked to healthy gene expression and tissue formation. Therefore, OSS may be a key fa...
