“Cost is more important than quality, but quality is the best way to reduce costs”. In the spirit of this inspirational quote from Genichi Taguchi, traditional Robust Design has developed into a well-established part of the quality-by design domain. Including widely known tools such as signal-to noise ratios, quality loss functions, crossed-array experiments, etc., Robust Design offers a...
“All models are wrong, but some are useful”. This fundamental quoting from George RP Box puts focus on the awareness on actual uncertainty and approximations that all models have to deal with. In engineering most product designs nowadays are developed and built including significant simulation efforts based on advanced multi-physics models. In aerospace engine design mechanical,...
