In this paper, we propose a design procedure for determining the gate position robust to changes and inherent fluctuations in the process conditions during injection molding. To evaluate the robustness of the gate position, the signal-to-noise ratio is used, and noise conditions are implemented using orthogonal arrays, where the process variables are considered as noise factors and possible process fluctuations are set as the levels of the noise factors. To show the usefulness of the proposed robust design procedure, we apply it to a computer CPU baseplate. As a result, it is shown that a robust gate position can be determined that reduces the average warpage deflection by 2.4% and 1.7%, and the variance by 3.4% and 5.1%, compared to the two initial gate positions.

Robust control for feedback control system is needed according to the highest precision of industrial automation. However, when a feedback control system has an effect of disturbance, it is very difficult to guarantee the robustness of control system. As a compensation method solving this problem, in this paper, Hybrid control method of feedback and Differential Supervisory controller is presented. A Feedback Controller is operated as a main controller, A Differential Supervisory Controller is a controller which operates only when some undesirable phenomena occur, e. g., when the error hits the boundary of constraint set. The robust control function of Differential Supervisory Controller, as a assistant controller is operated when state is unstable by disturbance. it demonstrated by speed control of motor.

This paper is proposed genetic algorithm tuning(GAT) controller for high performance of induction motor drive. We employed GA to the classical PI controller. The approach having ability for global optimization and with good robustness, is expected to overcome some weakness of conventional approaches and to be more acceptable for industrial practices. The control performance of the GAT PI controller is evaluated by analysis for various operating conditions. The results of experiment prove that the proposed control system has strong high performance and robustness to parameter variation, and steady-state accuracy and transient response.

Quality function deployment (QFD) provides a specific approach for ensuring quality throughout each stage of the product development and production process. Since the focus of QFD is placed on the early stage of product development, the uncertainty in the input information of QFD is inevitable. If the uncertainty is neglected, the QFD analysis results are likely to be misleading. It is necessary to equip practitioners with a new QFD methodology that can model, analyze, and dampen the effects of the uncertainty and variability in a systematic manner. Robust QFD is an extended version of QFD methodology, which is robust to the uncertainty of the input information and the resulting variability of the QFD output. This paper discusses recent research issues in Robust QFD. The major issues are related with the determination of overall priority, robustness evaluation, robust prioritization, and web-based Robust QFD optimizer. Our recent research results on the issues are presented, and some of future research topics are suggested.

It Is often required to choose the optimum operating conditions for several responses simultaneously. In solving this multiresponse problem, the correlation of several responses, quality of prediction and the robustness of each response variable are must be considered. This paper proposes a new loss function approach that allows to consider these three important aspects. A numerical example illustrates the proposed methodology

The Hausdorff distance is commonly used as a similarity measure between two-dimensional binary images. Since the document images may be contaminated by a variety of noise sources during transmission, scanning or conversion to digital form, the measure should be robust to the noise. Original Hausdorff distance has been known to be sensitive to outliers. Transforming the given image to grayscale image is one of methods to deal with the noises. In this paper, we propose a Hausdorff distance applied to grayscale images. The proposed method is tested with synthetic images with various levels of noises and compared with other methods to show its robustness.

In this paper, it is presented a new technique to the design and real-time implementation of fuzzy control system based-on digital signal processors in order to improve the precision and robustness for system of industrial robot. Fuzzy control has emerged as one of the most active and fruitful areas for research in the applications of fuzzy set theory, especially in the real of industrial processes. In this thesis, a self-organizing fuzzy controller or the industrial robot manipulator with a actuator located at the base is studied. A fuzzy logic composed of linguistic conditional statements is employed by defining the relations of input-output variable of the controller, In the synthesis of a FLC, one of the most difficult problems is the determination of linguistic control rules from the human operators. To overcome this difficult, SOFC is proposed for a hierarchical control structure consisting of basic level and high level that modify control rules.

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.
