Learning Outcomes

  • differentiate between classical and factorial experimental design and use the latter technique to gather information about a process with a limited number of experiments.
  • use a general statistical software package, such as SAS or Minitab, and the experimental design software package Design Expert.
  • screen important factors from unimportant factors, develop empirical models for individual process responses, and optimize process parameters to simultaneously satisfy multiple target responses.
