Robust Design for Occupant Protection System Using Taguchi's Method 2007-01-3724
This paper presents a study on robust design for occupant safety system using Taguchi's method. There are two design approaches to develop occupant protection system. The one is optimal design methodology such as DOE and optimization method. The other is robust design such as Taguchi's method and so on. In this paper, the DOE has been conducted with respect to design variables and the probability distribution of design objective with respect to random variables has been derived. Next, the robust design has been done using Taguchi's method with design and random variables. Finally, the effectiveness of robust design has been shown through the comparison of these two results
