This thesis illustrates analysis of the influence of the non-machining processes on product quality by experimental design and statistical analysis. For the analysis objective ; dishwasher production in Arcelik Dishwasher plant is examined. Sheet metal forming processes of dishwasher production constitutes the greatest portion of production cost and using the Pareto analysis technique; four pieces among twenty six pieces are determined to be investigated. These four pieces are the U Sheet, L Sheet, Inner Door and Side Panel of the dishwasher. By the help of the flow diagrams production process of the determined pieces are defined. Brainstorming technique and cause&effect diagrams are used to determine which non-machining process parameters can cause pieces to scrapped. These parameters are used as control factors in experimental design.Taguchi̕s L16(215) orthogonal array, Taguchi̕s L16(215) orthogonal array using S/N transformation and 28-4 fractional factorial design are used on purpose. With repetitions and confirmation experiments the effective parameters are determined and optimum level of these parameters are defined for the improvements on scrapquantity and quality of production.

Robust design of lithium extraction from boron clays by statistical design and analysis of experiments
Büyükburç, Atıl; Köksal, Gülser; Department of Industrial Engineering (2003)
In this thesis, it is aimed to design lithium extraction from boron clays using statistical design of experiments and robust design methodologies. There are several factors affecting extraction of lithium from clays. The most important of these factors have been limited to a number of six which have been gypsum to clay ratio, roasting temperature, roasting time, leaching solid to liquid ratio, leaching time and limestone to clay ratio. For every factor, three levels have been chosen and an experiment has be...
Parameter optimization of chemically activated mortaars containing high volumes of pozzolan by statistical design and analysis of experiments
Aldemir, Başak; Saatçioğlu, Ömer; Department of Industrial Engineering (2006)
This thesis illustrates parameter optimization of early and late compressive strengths of chemically activated mortars containing high volumes of pozzolan by statistical design and analysis of experiments. Four dominant parameters in chemical activation of natural pozzolans are chosen for the research, which are natural pozzolan replacement, amount of pozzolan passing 45 æm sieve, activator dosage and activator type. Response surface methodology has been employed in statistical design and analysis of experi...
Analysis and Design of Multichannel Systems for Perceptual Sound Field Reconstruction
De Sena, Enzo; Hacıhabiboğlu, Hüseyin; Cvetkovic, Zoran (2013-08-01)
This paper presents a systematic framework for the analysis and design of circular multichannel surround sound systems. Objective analysis based on the concept of active intensity fields shows that for stable rendition of monochromatic plane waves it is beneficial to render each such wave by no more than two channels. Based on that finding, we propose a methodology for the design of circular microphone arrays, in the same configuration as the corresponding loudspeaker system, which aims to capture inter-cha...
Design of economical noise array experiments for a partially controlled simulation environment
Köksal, Gülser (1998-12-01)
Design of economical experiments for estimation of a response function's moments in a partially controlled laboratory environment is studied. The noise factors affecting the response are assumed to be statistically independent and normally distributed. It is also assumed that if a factor is set to a specific level in the experimentation, its actual value is also a normally distributed random variable with a smaller variance. Experimental design levels of the factors are found by matching first few moments o...
Detection of component composition mismatch with axiomatic design
Toğay, Cengiz; SUNDAR, Gayathri; Doğru, Ali Hikmet (2006-04-02)
This paper presents a software component composition methodology based on Axiomatic Design theory and Design Structure Matrix. The methodology we propose helps overcome anomalies and functional problems such as deadlock. Our approach can be described in two steps. First, we decompose the system to detect coupled components by using the Design Structure Matrix. Secondly, we represent attribute and method dependencies of the coupled components to identify issues during software composition using Design Matrix...
