29Fractional factorial designs were introduced...
- A20s
- B30s-40s

31Begins at 80s, appreciating many ideas of the new approaches, the variability
reduction began to be an area of much research.- A1st stage
- B2nd stage
- C3rd stage
- D4th stage
- E5th stage
32Begins at 90s, Six Sigma and the statistical software, helped DoE to be applied in all types of industry.
- A1st stage
- B2nd stage
- C3rd stage
- D4th stage
- E5th stage
33The first Taguchi's publication dates from [blank_start]1950s[blank_end]. This approach to DoE was not introduced in the USA or Europe until the early [blank_start]1980s[blank_end].
Taguchi promoted statistical techniques from an [blank_start]engineering perspective[blank_end], in contrast to the [blank_start]statistical perspective[blank_end] of the DoE of the moment.
Taguchi developed a methodology for solving problems, which he called: [blank_start]Quality Engineering[blank_end].- A1950s
- B1980s
- Cengineering perspective
- Dstatistical perspective
- EQuality Engineering
- FSystematic Engineering
34Taguchi basic concepts:
- APareto principle
- BA quality product is one that causes a minimum loss to society throughout its life.
- CHe breaks down his “quality engineering” strategy into system, parameter and tolerance designs.
- DHe strongly opposes the use of fractional factorial designs
- EThe objective of experimenting is to achieve a target value minimizing variability.
35What is this image representing?
- APolynomial function
- BLogarithmic function
- CExponential function
- DLoss function
36Who said it?...
"Quality is something that can not be characterized only by an average of a desired characteristic, the variability of that characteristic must also be considered."- ABrothe
- BTaguchi
- CShainin
37The American approach (legally protected) to solve problems:
- ATaguchi method
- BShainin system
- CClassical approach
38Shainin system is based on:
- APareto principle
- BA quality product is one that causes a minimum loss to society throughout its life
- CHe breaks down his “quality engineering” strategy into three phases:
- DHe strongly opposes the use of fractional factorial designs
- ETalk to the components, they are smarter than the engineers
39This factor is the main cause of the variation of the response.
- ARed X
- BPink X
- CPale Pink X
40Pale Pink X is the second significant cause of the response variation.
- ATrue
- BFalse
41Shainin recommends the use of fractional factorial design:
- ATrue
- BFalse
42Taguchi and Shainin were the biggest critics of the classical approach.
- ATrue
- BFalse
43Taguchi's methods weren't criticized, there were always great comments about his strategy.
- ATrue
- BFalse
44Shainin most criticized tools are:
Variable SearchTM
Pre-ControlTM- ATrue
- BFalse
45Variable SearchTM is very similar to factorial design:
- ATrue
- BFalse
46Shainin presented Pre-ControlTM as an alternative to SPC:
- ATrue
- BFalse
47Any of the three approaches is much more efficient than OFAT strategy.
- ATrue
- BFalse
