Since 1965 almost all of the contributions to the design and analysis of factorial experiments have involved fractional factorial plans. These contributions may be categorized by three main classes of ...

Experimentation is a vital part of the scientific method. Most problems in science require observation of the system at work and experimentation to elucidate information about how the system works. In ...

In a two-level factorial experiment, we consider construction of parallel-flats designs with two identical parallel flats that allow estimation of a set of specified ...

Methods for designing and analyzing industrial experiments. Blocking; randomization; multiple regression; factorial and fractional factorial experiments; response surface methodology; Taguchi’s robust ...

The Plackett-Burman design method is one of the most useful tools when you don’t have all the data available for an ...
