Experiments have been conducted as per L9 orthogonal array of Taguchi methodology using several levels of the grinding parameters. Analysis of variance has been done to identify the influential process parameters on output variables. RSM has been applied to develop relationship between output responses with input parameters. Multi-objective overlaid contour plots have been made to study the interaction effects on both the responses simultaneously. Developed models are then solved individually, first and then combinedly by GA, for process optimization. Predicted output responses are then confirmed by confirmatory experiments.}, keywords = {Cylindrical grinding,Surface roughness,Grinding vibration,Response surface methodology,genetic algorithm}, url = {https://jmee.isme.ir/article_33315.html}, eprint = {https://jmee.isme.ir/article_33315_44da9e15b693b1a90438b59fb31d09a6.pdf} }
