  • During the past several decades, the Taguchi robust design method has been widely used in various fields successfully. On the other hand, some researchers and practitioners have criticized the method with respect to the way of utilizing orthogonal arrays, the signal-to-noise ratio as a performance measure, data analysis methods, etc., and proposed alternative approaches to robust design. This paper introduces the Taguchi method first, evaluates the validity of the criticisms, and discusses advantages and disadvantages of each alternative. Finally, research issues to be addressed for effective robust design are presented.

  • This paper presents the possible effects and restrictions that may arise in the field of industrial construction due to compliance with relevant construction codes and regulations, as well as the ways they can be favorably handled in the design of industrial buildings. Designs should be based primarily on human design factors, while considering the human as the centre of the work environment. Design parameters should be described as a function of both the physical and psychosocial attributes of a person as well as the technical and economical aspects on the design of industrial construction. This paper is an examination of the connection that exists between design law (codes and regulations) and industrial construction. The relevant construction laws and regulations are described, including standards and codes of practice that designing and supervising engineers are obliged to observe. Possible solutions and consequences of development in the production, constructional, and ergonomic field of design are also discussed.

  • 본 작품은 고령자에게 생활의 도움을 주면서 감성적으로 인간 친화적 역할을 수행하는 것을 목적으로 제작한 로봇이다. 고령화 사회 속에서 혼자 사는 노인들이 증가하는 사회현상을 바탕으로 노인의 노화로 인한 신체적 약점들 중 가장 많이 눈에 띄고 보편적인 증상을 일상 속에서 보완해 줄 수 있는 로봇을 개발하는데 중점을 두었다. 단순히 기능적인 편리성뿐 만 아니라 시각적으로 노인에게 즐거움을 주고 위안을 줄 수 있는 친근한 로봇은 노인이 생활하는데 큰 활력소가 될 것이다.

  • We are concerned with the optimal design of flexible manufacturing cells in this study, thus try to suggest the detail information for each resource on the optimal conditions. Object oriented simulation technology is used to write models more easily and to execute simulation running time more rapidly, and the optimal level of relevant decision variables is probed by response surface methodology(RSM), which is well known for the optimization technology based on experiment design and regression equation. We investigate the optimal level for the number of pallets and the speed of AGVs of FMC systems, carry out the performance analysis of this system. Consequently we suggest systematic procedures for the optimization of FMCs in detail design stage.

  • There is more than a single quality characteristic and they are often of varying or mixed target types. The purpose of this paper is to develop general strategies for solving the multiple response robust design problem. The desirability function provides an important tool to solve problems that have different types of target since the desirability values all the range between zero and one. Several combinations of arithmetic averages, geometric averages, and standard deviations are used in the various strategies to find the best design point.

  • Objective: The purpose of this study is to define consumers' affection on the interior design of commercial cars in terms of its design factors: color, embossing and gloss as independent factors. Background: Existing affective studies related to interior of vehicle focus on just sedans. However, there is no affective study about the interior of commercial cars. In addition, it is hard to change levels to which manufactures want. Method: Representative design factors were drawn using ANOVA and SNK analysis and definitive affective vocabularies were drawn using factor analysis. Furthermore, the results of 3D experiment were analyzed using ANOVA and LSD analysis. 3D images for the experiment were made using 3D max program. The experiment revealed that consumers discerned the differences in levels of each design factor and affective vocabulary. Results: The ANOVA revealed that beige color "A" type and non-gloss were the most preferred design in terms of the affective vocabularies and total preference. Conclusion: The result of the experiment may help manufactures to design the interior of commercial cars in the near future. Furthermore, the ANOVA result of affective vocabularies evaluation is expected to suggest a meaningful guideline. Application: The study results may be utilized as a guideline for interior design of commercial cars.
