Fundamental Concepts in the Design of Experiments, 5/e offers comprehensive coverage of the key elements of experimental design used by applied researchers to solve problems in the field.
Wide-ranging and accessible, it shows students how to use applied statistics for planning, running, and analyzing experiments. Featuring over 350 problems taken from the authors' actual industrial consulting experiences, the text gives.
Students valuable practice with real data and problem solving.
The problems emphasize the basic philosophy of design and are simple enough for students with limited mathematical backgrounds to understand. The authors provide extensive coverage of the analysis of residuals, the concept of resolution.
Fractional replications, Plackett-Burman designs, and Taguchi techniques.
SAS (Statistical Analysis System) computer programs are incorporated to facilitate analysis.
