4、 fractional factorial design, two or more effects which are estimated by the same contrast and which, therefore,cannot be estimated separately.DISCUSSION(1) The determination of which effects in a 2n factorial are aliased can be made once the defining contrast (in the case of a half replicate) or de

5、finingcontrasts (for a fraction smaller than 12) are stated.The defining contrast is that effect (or effects), usually thought to be of no consequence, about whichall information may be sacrificed for the experiment.An identity, I, is equated to the defining contrast (or defining contrasts) and, usi

6、ng the conversionthat A2 = B2 = C2 = I, the multiplication of the letters on both sides of the equation shows the aliases. In the example under fractional factorial design,I = ABCD. So that: A = A2BCD = BCD, and AB = A2B2CD = CD.(2) With a large number of factors (and factorial treatment combination

8、ame number k ofdifferent versions from the t versions of a single principal factor arranged so that every pair of versions occurs together in thesame number, , of blocks from the b blocks.DISCUSSIONThe design implies that every version of the principal factor appears the same number of times r in th

Since each letter in the above equations representsan integer, it is clear that only a restricted set of combinations (t,

10、k, b, r, ) is possible for constructing balanced incomplete block designs. For example,t = 7, k = 4, b = 7, = 2.

15、SIONBlocks are sets of similar experimental units intended to make variability within blocks as small as possible, so that treatment effects will be moreprecisely estimated. The effect of a block factor is usually not of primary interest in the experiment. Components of variance attributable to bloc

16、ksmay be of interest. The origin of the term “block” is in agricultural experiments, where a block is a contiguous portion of a field divided intoexperimental units, “plots,” that are each subjected to a pletely randomized design, na design in which the treatments are assigned at random to the full

17、set of experimental units.DISCUSSIONNo block factors are involved in a completely randomized pletely randomized factorial design, na factorial experiment (including all replications) run in a completely posite design, na design developed specifically for fitting second order response surfaces to stu

18、dy curvature, constructed byadding further selected treatments to those obtained from a 2n factorial (or its fraction).DISCUSSIONIf the coded levels of each factor are 1 and + 1 in the 2n factorial (see notation 2 under discussion for factorial experiment), the (2n + 1) additionalcombinations for a

19、central composite design are (0, 0, ., 0), (6a, 0, 0, ., 0) 0, 6a, 0, ., 0) ., (0, 0, ., 6 a). The minimum total number of treatmentsto be tested is (2n + 2n + 1) for a 2n factorial. Frequently more than one center point will be run. For n = 2, 3 and 4 the experiment requires, 9, 15,and 25 units res

20、pectively, although additional replicate runs of the center point are usual, as compared with 9, 27, and 81 in the 3n factorial. Thereduction in experiment size results in confounding, and thereby sacrificing, all information about curvature interactions. The value of a can be chosento make the coef

22、 and where the selection of the treatment combinations assigned to each block is arranged so that one or more prescribedeffects is(are) confounded with the block effect(s), while the other effects remain free from confounding.NOTE 1All factor level combinations are included in the experiment.DISCUSS

23、IONExample: In a 23 factorial with only room for 4 treatments per block, the ABC interaction (ABC: (1) + a + b ab + c ac bc + abc) can besacrificed through confounding with blocks without loss of any other effect if the blocks include the following:Block 1 Block 2Treatment (1) aCombination ab b(Code

24、 identification shown in discus-sion under factorial experiment)acbccabcThe treatments to be assigned to each block can be determined once the effect(s) to be confounded is(are) defined. Whereonly one term is to be confounded with blocks, as in this example, those with a positive sign are assigned t

25、o one block and thosewith a negative sign to the other. There are generalized rules for more complex situations. A check on all of the other effects (A,B, AB, etc.) will show the balance of the plus and minus signs in each block, thus eliminating any confounding with blocks forthem.confounding, ncom

26、bining indistinguishably the main effect of a factor or a differential effect between factors (interactions) withthe effect of other factor(s), block factor(s) or interaction(s).NOTE 2Confounding is a useful technique that permits the effective use of specified blocks in some experiment designs. Thi

27、s is accomplished bydeliberately preselecting certain effects or differential effects as being of little interest, and arranging the design so that they are confounded with blockE1325 162effects or other preselected principal factor or differential effects, while keeping the other more important eff

28、ects free from such complications.Sometimes, however, confounding results from inadvertent changes to a design during the running of an experiment or from incomplete planning of thedesign, and it serves to diminish, or even to invalidate, the effectiveness of an experiment.contrast, na linear functi

30、s and the results are represented by A1,A2, A3. If the levels are equally spaced, the first question it mightbe logical to ask is whether there is an overall linear trend. This could be done by comparing A1 and A3, the extremes of A in the experiment.Asecondquestion might be whether there is evidenc

31、e that the response pattern shows curvature rather than a simple linear trend. Here the average of A1 andA3 could be compared to A2. (If there is no curvature, A2 should fall on the line connecting A1 and A3 or, in other words, be equal to the average.)The following example illustrates a regression

32、type study of equally spaced continuous variables. It is frequently more convenient to use integers ratherthan fractions for contrast coefficients. In such a case, the coefficients for Contrast 2 would appear as (1, + 2, 1).Response A1 A2 A3Contrast coefficients for question 1 1 0 +1Contrast 1 A1 .

Synonyms include experiment designand experimental design.DISCUSSIONThe purpose of designing an experiment is to provide the most efficient and economical methods of reaching valid and relevant conclusions from theexperiment. The selection of an

48、 appropriate design for any experiment is a function of many considerations such as the type of questions to beanswered, the degree of generality to be attached to the conclusions, the magnitude of the effect for which a high probability of detection (power) isdesired, the homogeneity of the experim
