 Design of Experiments (Unit 4) Design of Experiments - DOE - Unit 4 - SRMIST Syllabus RSM A sequential procedure is a collection of statistical techniques for the analysis of problems in which the response is influenced by other variables. The objective is to optimize the response. First-order model - A linear function of independent variables. Second order model - Curvature of a polynomial of higher degree. Contour Plot - A 2-D projection of the curvatures. Canonical form & optimization. Types Steepest Ascent - Upward of region of fitted. Steepest Descent - Downward of the region of fitted. Central Composite Designs Fractional factorial Plackett-Burman Box-Behnken Design Points CCC CCI CCF NOTE *Certain sums are possible from this unit which has not been mentioned in this article.

Design of Experiments (Unit 3) Design of Experiments - Unit 3 - DOE - SRMIST Syllabus Taguchi's Quality Loss Function Taguchi's loss function talks about the critical performance parameter value . The entire point being, we find the most nominal value of the parameter specification . Orthogonal array (OA) -   A unique table indicating how to do the experiments with the available variables and their settings. Larger the better -   Analysing to maximise the parameter being studied. Smaller the better - Analysing to minimize the parameter being studied. Nominal the better - Analysing to have nominal parameter being studied. Steps in Taguchi's Method NOTE *This unit has some numerical which are in the PPT. They are not covered in this since this article only covers important points for theory.

  Design of Experiments (Unit 1) Design of experiments - DOE - Unit 1 - SRMIST 2022 syllabus.  Experiments It is a series of conducted tests to analyse and understand behavioural patterns between certain factors and then to statistically predict outputs for future instances . An experiment involves taking multiple tests by disturbing the environment and noting down the reaction. The goal is to make a test yield better outcome (efficiency) by optimizing the variable factors in the experiment.  System Model When basic inputs are fed into a process or system model, we expect an output from the process which is dependent on external factor which are either controllable or uncontrollable. Objectives Determining the most influential control variables. Determining location of this variable for optimized output. The location of this variable must not lead to variable output. Effect of uncontrolled variable must be minimized.  Terms Response - Outcome of an experiment. Factors - Var
