In this study, a minimum weight design and sensitivity analysis were conducted for the Fairlead Chain Stopper (FCS), a detachable mooring system designed for application to a 10 MW-class floating offshore wind turbine. The Orthogonal Array Design (OAD) was employed to systematically evaluate the influence of design variables. In the OAD, the thickness dimensions of the primary components of the FCS were selected as design factors, while the responses were defined as structural weight and strength performances. The suitability of the OAD experimental matrix configuration was verified by constructing a response surface model and assessing its approximation accuracy. The minimum weight design of the FCS was determined based on the optimal configuration derived from the OAD results. Furthermore, through sensitivity analysis, the design factors with the most significant effect on each response were identified.

The paper deals with comparative study of characteristics of surrogate models and sensitivity evaluation using design of experiments in order to enhance and analysis the structure design of an automatic salt collector under various design load conditions. Orthogonal array design based on numerical analysis was used for the design of experiments. The thickness sizing variables of main structure member were considered the design factors, and the output responses were selected from the strength performances as well as the weight. The quantitative effects on responses for each design factor were evaluated from the orthogonal array experiment. Optimum design case was also identified to improve the strength performances with weight minimization. Using the orthogonal array experiment. various surrogate models such as response surface model, Kriging model, and Chebyshev orthogonal polynomial were generated. The orthogonal array experiment results were validated by the surrogate modeling results. The most suitable surrogate model was the response surface model for the exploration of design space of the automatic salt collector.

This paper is analysis on usefulness of Microstrip patch antenna design using Taguchi's Orthogonal array. For comparison, the shape of U-slot and Feed line elements are decided as a parameter in Microstrip patch antenna. And all the possible result of 19,683 times simulation using parameter sweep and the result of Taguchi's orthogonal arrays are compared. The simulation of Parameter sweep and Orthogonal arrays has 3.7% error on 10dB Bandwidth. Finally, It is identified that 19,683 times parameter sweep simulation can be reduced to 27 times with Taguchi's orthogonal arrays but still it represents antenna parameter characters well.

In onshore and offshore plant engineering, a broad use of pipe system have been achieved and accordingly related technologies has been developed especially in the field of flow control valves. The aim of this study is to suggest the quadruple offset butterfly valve for bi-directional applications which show equivalent operating torque characteristics of the triple offset butterfly valve. Seat design parameters for the quadruple offset butterfly valve are determined by the proposed method utilizing both ANOVA (analysis of variance) and the orthogonal array. Through additive model considering the effect of design parameters on seating torque, mean estimation is performed and thus its optimization results are verified by design of experiment results. The insight obtained from the present study is beneficial for valve design engineers to develop reliable and integrated design of the quadruple offset butterfly valve.

The design of experiment(DOE) with orthogonal arrays is adopted when the engineering design is needed in a discrete design space. In this research, a design process with orthogonal array is performed to obtain the optimum design which satisfy the frequency target of the steering system. The optimum design is determined from the analysis of means(ANOM) and sensitivity information about design variables is evaluated by the analysis of variance(ANOVA). Interactions between design variables are investigated to achieve additivity which should be valid in using orthogonal array. It is shown that when strong interactions exist, the DOE process with orthogonal array considering interaction is introduced to find out optimum design.

Steel fiber was a considerable significant factor in aspect of the response values of MOR and boo Based on the significance of factors related to response values from ANOVA, following assessments were available; Slump decrease: carbon fiber >> steel fiber > silica fume; MOR: steel fiber > silica fume > carbon fiber; $I_{30}$: steel fiber > carbon fiber > silica fume. Steel fiber $1.0\%$, carbon fiber $0.25\%$ and silica fume $5.0\%$, and Steel fiber $1.0\%$, carbon fiber $0.25\%$ and silica fume $2.5\%$ were obtained as the most optimum mixture.

The safety analysis becomes very essential in the crash environment with the growth of automobile industry. Recently, an airbag system is required to protect the occupant. The effects of an airbag can be evaluated exactly from the barrier or sled test which is quite expensive. The airbag system in a passenger car is analyzed with the occupant analysis program. The modeling of the passenger car including an airbag is established and the results are verified by comparisons with real crash tests. However, the solution of an airbag design can not be obtained easily with the conventional method such as an optimization due to the nonlinearity and complexity of the problem. An iterative design algorithm using the orthogonal array is proposed to overcome the difficulties. The design trend of an airbag is recommended to minimize the injury of an occupant with the proposed design algorithm and the results are discussed.

In this study, structural optimum design was applied to the girder of magnet over head crane. The optimization was carried out using ANSYS Code for the deadweight of girder, especially focused on the thickness of its upper, lower, side and reinforced plates. The weight could be reduced up to around 15% with constraints of its deformation, stress, natural frequency and buckling strength. The structural safety was also verified by the buckling analysis of its panel structure. It might be thought to be very useful to design the conventional structures for the weight save through the structural optimization. The objective function and restricted function were estimated by the orthogonal array, and the sensitivity analysis of design variable fur that was operated.

This paper concerns about an experimental investigation about steering performance of tracked vehicle on extremely soft soil based on DOE(Design Of Experiment) using L8 orthogonal Array. A tracked vehicle model with principal dimensions of $0.9m{\times}0.8m{\times}0.4m$ and weight 167kg was constructed with a pair of driving chain links driven by two AC-servo motors. The tracks are configured with detachable grousers, the span of which can be varied. Deep seabed was simulated by means of bentonite-water mixture in a soil bin of $6.0m{\times}3.7m{\times}0.7m$. Turning radii of vehicle and torques of motors were measured with respect to experimental variables; steering ratio, driving speed, grouser chevron angle, grouser span, grouser height. The effects of experiment variables on steering performance are evaluated.
