Abstract
In this chapter, two additional case studies illustrate design of experiments (DOE) and regression being applied in real-world manufacturing. The first study involved the application of screening methods for identifying the cause of a major quality problem and resolving that problem. The second derives from Allen et al. (2000) and relates to the application of a type of response surface method. In this second study, the design of an automotive part was tuned to greatly improve its mechanical performance characteristics.
