Outline of Final Research Achievements

For a simple product model, normal random numbers were generated within specified conventional-tolerance as machining error. A thousand pieces of product were simulatively generated, and product performance of those were respectively calculated using the finite element method software. Frequency distributions about product performance were calculated. Those processes were repeated by changing the values of statistical tolerance index. Comparing the calculation results, effectiveness of statistical tolerance index was confirmed. Furthremore, design method of statistical tolerance index was also developed, which was consisting of the Monte-Carlo simulation and the real-coded genetic algorithm. The effectiveness of the method was confirmed through case studies using a virtual product.
