Abstract
This paper presents a new approach to robustness analysis in multiobjective optimization problems aimed at obtaining the most robust Pareto front solutions and also at distributing solutions along the most robust regions of the optimal Pareto set. The methodology proposed is applied to a single screw polymer extrusion with the aim to obtain the most robust solutions for the optimization of the extruder geometry. The non-dominated solutions obtained take into account their degree of robustness and the distribution of such solutions along the Pareto front accordingly with specific algorithm parameter values. The results obtained have physical meaning and are in accordance with the practical knowledge about the industrial process studied.
