This paper proposes an optimal design scheme to improve the muffler's capacity of noise reduction of the exhaust system by combining the Taguchi method and a fractional factorial design. As a measuring tool for the performance of a muffler, the performance prediction software which is developed by Oh, Lee and Lee (1996) is used. In the first stage of a design, the length and radius of each component of the current muffler system are selected as control factors. Then, the $L_{18}$ table of orthogonal arrays is adopted to extract the effective main factors. In the second stage, the fractional factorial design is adopted to take interactions into consideration, which the $L_{18}$ table of orthogonal arrays can not consider. For an optimal design, the $L_{27}$ table of orthogonal arrays with main and interaction effects is proposed and the noise factors such as temperature, background noise and humidity are analyzed for more efficient design simultaneously.

This study uses a characteristic function to explain correlations between the objective function and design variables. Analysis of means and table of orthogonal array were carried out. The change of shape of diaphragm, thickness of diaphragm and voice coil weight based on the table of orthogonal array is made. Therefore this study carried to decide shape of diaphragm, voice coil weight and thickness of diaphragm for minimizing 1st natural frequency and maximizing 2nd natural frequency of diaphragm using design of experiments and characteristic function with constraints. we showed improved design factors that minimized 1st natural frequency and maximized 2nd natural frequency of diaphragm.

Recently, the regulations from the government and the concerns of people be raised to the interest in exhaust and intake noise of passenger car as much as other vehicles. In these demands, performance prediction software was developed in this paper. In this study, Robust design was used for improving the noise reduction capacity of intake system with the performance prediction software. On the basis of the existing design, length and radius of each component that was thought to be effective to the performance of intake system was selected. At first, factors are arranged by using Ll8 table of orthogonal array and then optimum value can be obtained by modified Ll6 table of orthogonal array.

The correlation between the object function and the design parameter is shown on this paper by using the characteristic function for tile mixed result of the structure analysis. tile buckling analysis and the table of orthogonal array according to the original crane's dimensional change. About the above two object functions, the effective of design change according to the change of design parameters could be estimated. Also, the crane's weight is reduced up to 20.58 percent maintaining the structural stability according to the thickness of plate.

We propose an optimal design to improve the muffler's capacity by reducing the noise of the intake system by adapting kriging method with the robust design. For the first stage of a design, the length and radius of each component of the current muffler system are selected as control factors. Then, the $L_18$ table of orthogonal arrays is adapted to extract the effective main factors. As the second stage, the $L_18$ table of orthogonal arrays using kriging method is adapted to take the significant factors into consideration. As an optimal design, the $L_18$ table of orthogonal arrays with main effects is proposed and the kriging method is adapted for more efficient design. The kriging method improves the performance of intake system.

On this study, we optimized maximizing the thrust force at the TFLM(Transverse Flux Linear Motor) using design of experiments by the table of orthogonal array and the analysis of means(ANOM), and classified the most contributive design factor maximizing the thrust force at the TFLM by analysis of variance(ANOVA). From now on, we are going to apply the required technique to design various uses and shapes of the TFLM.

On this study. we improved the efficiency applying algorithm that is repeatedly using table of orthogonal array in discrete design space and filling a defect of gradient method in continuous design space. we showed optimal ply angle that maximized 1st natural frequency of CFRP laminated composite plate without a hole and with a hole by each aspect ratio. In the case of CFRP laminated composite plate without a hole, we confirmed the reliance and efficiency of algorithm in comparison with the result of optimization achievement repeatedly using statistical table of orthogonal array of experimental design and the BFGS optimal design method.

Process design of multi-step wire drawing process, conducted by means of finite element analysis and ANN(Artificial Neural Network) has been considered. The investigated problem involves the ade-quate selection of the drawing die angle and the correspondent reduction rate in the condition of desired initial and final diameter. Combinations of the process parameters which are used in finite ele-ment simulation are selected by using the orthogonal array. Also the orthogonal array. Also the orthogonal array and the results of finite element simulation which are related to the process energy are used as train data of ANN. In this study it is shown that the application of new technique using ANN and Othogonal array table to the process design of metal forming process is useful method.

This article develops to determine and to allocate the two level factors at the table of orthogonal arrays. The column numbers of two factors and two-factor interaction can be determined in applying the bit-by-bit EX-OR operation. The assignment of the Two factors and Two factor interaction is attained by USING COMPUTER, IBM PC/AT applying algorithm of EX-OR operation Theory.
