As a method of structural optimization, a practical algorithm based on the Taguchi method is developed. The Taguchi method is applied iteratively updating the level values of design variables. The design region is translated or reduced during optimization and by appropriate choice of reduction factor and initial level intervals, a near-optimum solution can be found very efficiently. To treat inequality constraints, a variable penalty method is utilized. A software system named 'DS/Taguchi' is developed by integrating the proposed algorithm and commercial finite element analysis codes on the parametric CAD platform. Two examples are taken to examine the performance of the proposed algorithm and the developed software system.

On this study, we improved diaphgram for micro speaker performance using Taguchi method in discrete design space. The design of diaphgram has an effect on performance of micro speaker such as, thickness of diaphgram, shape of diaphgram, etc. Therefore this study carried to decide shape of diaphgram and thickness of diaphgram for minimizing 2nd natural frequency of diaphgram using Taguchi method. we showed improved design factors that minimized 2nd natural frequency of diaphgram. Also, 2nd natural frequency of diaphgram for micro speaker is reduced up to 37 percent maintaining twist mode shape. From the results of ANOVA, 2nd natural frequency of diaphgram for micro speaker have an effect on position of the outer curved shape and thickness of diaphgram.

Wrinkle, spring-back, and fracture are major defects frequently found in the sheet metal forming process, and the reduction of such defects is difficult as they are affected by uncontrollable factors, such as variations in properties of the incoming material and process parameters. Without any countermeasures against these issues, attempts to reduce defects through optimal design methods often lead to failure. In this research, a new multi-attribute robust design methodology, based on the Mahalanobis Taguchi System (MTS), is presented for reducing the possibilities of wrinkle, spring-back, and fracture. MTS performs experimentation, based on the orthogonal array under various noise conditions, uses the SN ratio of the Mahalanobis distance as a performance metric. The proposed method is illustrated through a robust design of the sheet metal forming process of a cross member of automotive body.

parameters in surface grinding. Taguchi method which is one of the design of experiments has been introduced in achieving the aims. The process parameters were the grain size, the wheel speed, the depth of cut and the table speed. The effect of the process parameters on the geometric error was examined and an optimal set of the parameters was selected to minimize the geometric error within the controllable range of the used grinding machine. The reliability of the results was evaluated by the ANOVA.

A typical disk brake system consists of caliper housing, piston, seal and two pads etc. The configuration of seal groove, dimension of piston and seal, and seal material properties are important ones for brake performance, as these affect the retraction of piston. The rubber seal is designed to perform dual functions of sealing the brake oil at brake-applied and retracting the caliper piston at brake-released. In this paper, the seal stress is analyzed using Finite Element Method and experiment is conducted by Taguchi's Method. We attempt to quantify the critical design factors in the seal groove and evaluate their impact on some of brake performance factors. The investigation obtained from this study can not only enhance the seal groove design optimization, but also reduce product prototype testing and development time.

General vehicle is evaluated by its acceleration, fuel economy, NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) and subjective (such as launching feel) performance. The first step to enhance its performance is to know how much each component affects on the vehicle performance. It is very important to know what is the key factor of the component among many specifications. Hydraulic torque converter can be expressed by means of its performance curve (torque ratio and capacity factor). In this paper, the key factor of torque converter, which affect vehicle performance, are explored by using Taguchi method. Moreover, general sensitivity analysis method is compared with Taguchi's experiment.

This paper introduces the experimental analysis of the resonator in the rolling piston type compressor for air conditioner. The resonator located between cylinder and hearing is a major factor in the noise reduction of the rotary compressor. Several shapes for the resonator which can be built in the space limitations are derived. Then optimal resonator type for the noise reduction is determined by noise tests. 6 design parameters of the type are found and optimal level for each design factor is deduced from Taguchi method.

A semi-anechoic termination is necessary in the muffler transmission loss test rig in order to suppress the sound reflection effects in the downstream. The reflected sound can distort the measured transmission loss curves. However, there exists only general guide about how to manufacture a semi-anechoic termination. In this study, Taguchi's method was used to design a semi-anechoic termination more efficiently.

본 논문에서는 기존의 EPS(Electric Power Steering) 시스템에 IPMSM을 적용하고 속도 및 위치를 검출하기 위하여 Magnetic Position Sensor를 사용하였다. 이�� Magnetic Position Sensor의 신호는 정현파의 출력을 갖지만 고조파의 성분으로 인하여서 파형이 왜곡되고 이러한 파형의 왜곡으로 인해 위치 검출의 오차를 갖게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 오차를 줄이기 위하여 다구찌 기법과 3차원 유한요소법(3D FEM)을 사용하여 고조파를 저감시킬 수 있도록 여러 변수를 변화하여서 최적의 설계를 통하여 실제 실제 센서 출력과 비교하여 자동차 산업 전반에 기여 하고자 한다.

This study aimed to develop a wind turbine system for the domestic wind environments. The Taguchi method was applied to obtain the optimal design for a wind turbine with a wind-shield. The design parameters were defined to look for the shape of the wind turbine. Optimal parameters were determined on the basis of the analyzed level averages of the characteristics. According to the test results to which the optimal parameters were applied, the rpm improved. It was also found that a windshield 3/4 the size contributes to improving the efficiency of existing turbines.
