Factorial and Fractional Factorial Designs

Course 211 hours4.7 (71 ratings)

What you'll learn

  • Conduct a factorial experiment in blocks and construct and analyze a fractional factorial design

  • Apply the factorial concept to experiments with several factors

  • Use the analysis of variance for factorial designs

  • Use the 2^k system of factorial designs

Response Surfaces, Mixtures, and Model Building

Course 313 hours4.7 (61 ratings)

What you'll learn

  • Conduct experiments w/computer models and understand how least squares regression is used to build an empirical model from experimental design data

  • Understand the response surface methodology strategy to conduct experiments where system optimization is the objective

  • Recognize how the response surface approach can be used for experiments where the factors are the components of a mixture

  • Recognize where the objective of the experiment is to minimize the variability transmitted into the response from uncontrollable factors

Random Models, Nested and Split-plot Designs

Course 49 hours4.6 (30 ratings)

What you'll learn

  • Design and analyze experiments where some of the factors are random

  • Design and analyze experiments where there are nested factors or hard-to-change factors

  • Analyze experiments with covariates

  • Design and analyze experiments with nonnormal response distributions
