Editorial Review:
Phadke was trained in robust design techniques by Genichi Taguchi, the mastermind behind Japanese quality manufacturing technologies and the father of Japanese quality control. Taguchi's approach is currently under consideration to be adopted as a student protocol with the US govrnment. The foreword is written by Taguchi. This book offers a complete blueprint for structuring projects to achieve rapid completion with high engineering productivity during the research and development phase to ensure that high quality products can be made quickly and at the lowest possible cost. Some topics covered are: orthogonol arrays, how to construct orthogonal arrays, computer-aided robutst design techniques, dynamic systems design methods, and more.

Insightful and Easy to read  2004-02-26
Dr. Phadke has written the most clear book on the Robust Design method. I was able to follow the book with medium statistical and engineering knowledge and gained valueable knowledge. This is a must read for all engineering managers!
How to do Robust Design 2001-09-11
Phadke gives a versatily, easy to read introduction into the on-target philosophy and the Quality Loss Function.Many examples are taken from real case studies (e.g. from Xerox and ITT), covering mechanics, electronics and computer systems. These are good to inspire your own improvement projects. Unfortunately, the most verstile characteristic is not treated (dynamic characteristic).
A good starter for engineers getting into Robust Design.  1999-04-07
This is one of the earliest books on the subject. It gives an attractive treatment of the concepts and techniques of Robust Design, but is by now dated in view of the ideas that have been advanced and discussed among the professionals in the past decade. I look forward to a new edition of the book.
