Dynamic Robust Parameter Design Using Response Surface Methodology based on Generalized Linear Model

Methodology/Approach: A target system in a typical dynamic RPD can be interpreted as one in which the relation between the input and the output is a linear model, and the output error follows a normal distribution. However, an actual system often does not conform to this premise. Therefore, we propose a new analysis approach that can realize a more flexible system design by applying a response surface methodology (RSM) based on a generalized linear model (GLM) to dynamic RPD.


Findings: The results demonstrate that 1) a robust solution can be obtained using the proposed method even for a typical dynamic RPD system or an actual system, and 2) the target function can be evaluated using an adjustment parameter.


Research Limitation/implication: Further analysis is required to determine which factor(s) in the estimated process model largely contribute(s) to changes in the adjustment parameter.


Originality/Value of paper: The applicability of typical dynamic RPD is limited. Hence, this study’s analytical process provides engineers with greater design flexibility and deeper insights into dynamic systems across various contexts.
