Summary

This book demonstrates the utility of the computer-aided optimal design approach using real industrial examples. These examples address questions such as the following: "#xA0;How can I do screening inexpensively if I have dozens of factors to investigate? "#xA0;What can I do if I have day-to-day variability and I can only perform 3 runs a day? "#xA0;How can I do RSM cost effectively if I have categorical factors? "#xA0;How can I design and analyze experiments when there is a factor that can only be changed a few times over the study? "#xA0;How can I include both ingredients in a mixture and processing factors in the same study? "#xA0;How can I design an experiment if there are many factor combinations that are impossible to run? "#xA0;How can I make sure that a time trend due to warming up of equipment does not affect the conclusions from a study? "#xA0;How can I take into account batch information in when designing experiments involving multiple batches? "#xA0;How can I add runs to a botched experiment to resolve ambiguities? While answering these questions the book also shows how to evaluate and compare designs. This allows researchers to make sensible trade-offs between the cost of experimentation and the amount of information they obtain. The structure of the book is organized around the following chapters: 1)#xA0;Introduction explaining the concept of tailored DOE. 2)#xA0;Basics of optimal design. 3)#xA0;Nine case studies dealing with the above questions using the flow: "#xA0;description #x92; design #x92; analysis #x92; optimization or engineering interpretation. 4)#xA0;Summary. 5)#xA0;Technical appendices for the mathematically curious.
