Abstract
Around 80 per cent of the costs and problems of quality are created in product development. The paper overviews a knowledge-based design tec hnique for the prediction of potential variability risks in component manufacture and assembly, and presents a method for linking the risk m etrics to notions of design acceptability and potential costs of quali ty in production and service. The paper considers issues related to ap plication of the work to industrial products and describes its couplin g with failure modes and effects analysis.
