Abstract

Taguchi's robust design is a method for quality improvement by making a system insensitive to uncontrollable variations incurred by noise factors and it has received much attention in a wide range of engineering fields. Robust design can be broadly classified into static and dynamic ones. This paper is concerned with dynamic robust design. Taguchi suggested to use a signal-to-noise ratio as a robustness measure, but there has been much debate and criticism on its blind use. In order to cope with this drawback, many alternatives have been proposed. They are divided into performance measure modeling (PMM) and response function modeling (RFM) approaches. In this paper, both PMM and RFM approaches for dynamic robust design are reviewed. An example for illustration is provided as well.
