Developing a robust distillation design often requires more than achieving a converged solution. Engineers must evaluate ...

I am accelerating my plans to start a series on robust design principles because of the timely interest in the safety recall by Toyota for a sticking accelerator pedal. Many people are weighing in on ...

Designing a system for fault tolerance is a robust design principle for building systems that will continue to operate correctly or in an acceptable degraded fashion. This approach is appropriate for ...

What is robust design optimization (RDO), and is it better than standard optimization? In this customer case, we describe a multi-disciplinary optimization of a turbocharger compressor from Ford Motor ...

Quality control starts with an inspection of the finished product, but this method does not affect quality. For continuous quality improvements, you have to combine the inspection with methods that ...
