Description
Addresses the issues of quality and engineering design in a formal way. Its aim is to foster the understanding and collaboration among scientists and engineers in the fields of conceptual approaches to engineering design, computational approaches in design, statistical design and analysis, reliability and quality control. The 34 papers included disseminate state-of-the-art information on engineering design in the context of quality, presenting views and sharing concepts. In addition to the quantitative models presented in this book, applications, strategic considerations and validated managerial practices are also considered. It illustrates the great value of developing communication channels between engineers and statisticians and between academic theoreticians and industrial practitioners, and of differentiating future design needs from the current design practice. It presents problems and solutions across the boundaries of nations and cultures. It is this particular quality that is essential to expanding world economic and enhancing human living standards. This work is designed to serve as a useful reference for all those involved in engineering design.
They should benefit from the modern statistical techniques and tutorials presented in the book and from the numerous reviews of successful, real applications of quality and reliability techniques to various design projects.
