Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fulfill the practical potential of DOE-with a powerful, 16-step approach for applying the Taguchi method Over the past decade, Design of Experiments (DOE) has undergone great advances through the work of the Japanese management guru Genechi Taguchi. Yet, until now, books on the Taguchi method have been steeped in theory and complicated statistical analysis. Now this trailblazing work translates the Taguchi method into an easy-to-implement 16-step system. Based on Ranjit Roy's successful Taguchi training course, this extensively illustrated book/CD-ROM package gives readers the knowledge and skills necessary to understand and apply the Taguchi method to engineering projects-from theory and applications to hands-on analysis of the data. It is suitable for managers and technicians without a college-level engineering or statistical background, and its self-study pace-with exercises included in each chapter-helps readers start using Taguchi DOE tools on the job quickly. Special features include: * An accompanying CD-ROM of Qualitek-4 software, which performs calculations and features all example experiments described in the book * Problem-solving exercises relevant to actual engineering situations, with solutions included at the end of the text * Coverage of two-, three-, and four-level factors, analysis of variance, robust designs, combination designs, and more Engineers and technical personnel working in process and product design-as well as other professionals interested in the Taguchi method-will find this book/CD-ROM a tremendously important and useful asset for making the most of DOE in their work.

Download or read book Data Classification and Forecasting Using the Mahalanobis Taguchi Method written by Adebolaji A. Jobi-Taiwo and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Classification and forecasting are useful concepts in the field of condition monitoring. Condition monitoring refers to the analysis and monitoring of system characteristics to understand and identify deviations from normal operating conditions. This can be performed for prediction, diagnosis, or prognosis or a combination of any these purposes. Fault identification and diagnosis are usually achieved through data classification, while forecasting methods are usually used to accomplish the prediction objective. Data gathered from monitoring systems often consists of multiple multivariate time series and is fed into a model for data analysis using various techniques. One of the data analysis techniques used is the Mahalanobis-Taguchi strategy (MTS) because of its suitability for multivariate data analysis. MTS provides a means of extracting information in a multidimensional system by integrating information from different variables into a single composite metric. MTS is used to conduct analysis on the measurement parameters and seeks a correlation with the result while also seeking to optimize the analysis by identifying variables of importance strongly correlated with a defect or fault occurrence. This research presents the application of a MTS based system for predicting faults in heavy duty vehicles and the application of MTS in a multiclass classification problem. The benefits and practicality of the methodology in industrial applications are demonstrated through the use of real world data and discussion of results."--Abstract, page iv.

Download or read book Machine Tool Reliability written by Bhupesh K. Lad and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-04-04 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the domain of reliability engineering in the context of machine tools. Failures of machine tools not only jeopardize users' ability to meet their due date commitments but also lead to poor quality of products, slower production, down time losses etc. Poor reliability and improper maintenance of a machine tool greatly increases the life cycle cost to the user. Thus, the application area of the present book, i.e. machine tools, will be equally appealing to machine tool designers, production engineers and maintenance managers. The book will serve as a consolidated volume on various dimensions of machine tool reliability and its implications from manufacturers and users point of view. From the manufacturers' point of view, it discusses various approaches for reliability and maintenance based design of machine tools. In specific, it discusses simultaneous selection of optimal reliability configuration and maintenance schedules, maintenance optimization under various maintenance scenarios and cost based FMEA. From the users' point of view, it explores the role of machine tool reliability in shop floor level decision- making. In specific, it shows how to model the interactions of machine tool reliability with production scheduling, maintenance scheduling and process quality control.

Download or read book A Guide to Research Methodology written by Shyama Prasad Mukherjee and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-09-04 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Methodology is meant to provide a broad guideline to facilitate and steer the whole of a research activity in any discipline. With the ambit and amount of research increasing by the day, the need for Research Methodology is being widely appreciated. Against this backdrop, we notice the dearth of well-written books on the subject. A Guide to Research Methodology attempts a balance between the generic approach to research in any domain and the wide array of research methods which are to be used in carrying out different tasks in any research. Discussions on these research methods appropriate in various disciplines have focused on the research tasks, keeping in mind the fact that a single such task like a comparison among alternatives may involve several methods from seemingly distinct areas. Unique features of this volume, as will be evident to a discerning reader, include: A detailed discussion on problem areas for research in several domains An illustrative and ampliated list of research problems drawn from different disciplines which can be pursued by interested research workers A comprehensive delineation of Research Design supported by illustrations An elaborate engagement with models with a note on model uncertainty Focus on recent and emerging models, methods and techniques A novel treatment of data analysis where the nature of data and the objective(s) of analysis justify drawing upon a variety of techniques for analysis This book will serve the purpose of a pre-PhD or a Master-level course-work for students of any discipline with a basic knowledge of quantitative analysis. In fact, anyone aspiring to take up meaningful research work will find the content useful and interesting.
