“…In addition, these methods validate and support experimental studies and play a major role in determining solution sensitivity, effective parameters, and positive and negative factors on the problem (Shetty, Kumar, Mallagi, and Keni, 2021;Bolar, Das, and Joshi, 2018;Yılmaz, Dilipak, Sarıkaya, Yılmaz, and Özdemir, 2014). In many studies, analysis of variance (ANOVA), finite element method (FEM), linear and multiple regression models, Taguchi, ANN (artificial neural networks) and RSM (response surface method) methods were preferred (Yadav, 2021;Çiftçi and Gökçe, 2019;Davoudinejad, Doagou-Rad, and Tosello, 2018;Hazir, Erdinler, and Koc, 2018;Kumar, 2018;Chandrasekaran and Payton, 2013).…”
