Designing for Quality

Designing for Quality explores a vital design technique called design of experiments (DOE). It integrates both the engineering and statistical aspects of designed experiments combining the best of Dr. Genichi Taguchi's approach with the best techniques from western design. With these designs you can: improve product performance; make product and process characteristics less sensitive to factors that cannot be controlled; reduce development, manufacturing, and use costs.

Topics covered include:

Full factorial and fractional factorial designs for two-level experiments.
Experimental designs for factors at three and four levels.
Analysis of variance in engineering design.
Using experiments to improve processes.
Types of computer software for experimental design.
