Response Surface Method in the Presence of Uncontrollable Factors

Mehdi Kiani ^*

Abstract: (1533 Views)

In the 1980s, Genichi Taguchi, a Japanese quality advisor, claimed that most of the variability affiliated with the response could be attributed to the company of unmanageable (noise) factors. In some practical cases, his modeling proposition evidence leads the quality improvement to many runs in a crossed array. Hence, several researchers have em-braced noteworthy attitudes of response surface methodology along with the robust parameter design action as alternatives to Taguchi's plan. These alternatives model the response's mean and variance corresponding to the combination of control and noise factors in a combined array to accomplish a robust process or production. Indeed, using response surface methods to the robust parameter design minimises the impression of noise factors on assembling processes or productions. This paper intends to develop further modeling of the predicted response and variance in the presence of noise factors based on unbiased and robust estimators. Another goal is to design the experiments according to the optimal designs to improve these estimators' accuracy and precision simultaneously.

Keywords: Response Surface, Robust Parameter Design, Optimal Designs.
