In their simplest form, orthogonal arrays (OAs) are experimental designs where all level-combinations of any two factors occur equally often. As a result, the main effects of the factors are orthogonal to each other. There are also more involved OAs for which the level-combinations of any three factors occur equally often. In such OAs, the main effects are orthogonal to each other as well as...
Orthogonal minimally aliased response surface (OMARS) designs permit the screening of quantitative factors at three levels using an economical number of runs. In these designs, the main effects are orthogonal to each other and to the quadratic effects and two-factor interactions of the factors, and these second-order effects are never fully aliased. Complete catalogs of OMARS designs with up...
Much has been written about augmenting preliminary designs for first-order regression with additional runs to support quadratic models. This is a reasonable approach to practical sequential experimentation, allowing an early stop if the preliminary first-order result does not look promising. Central composite designs are especially well-suited to this (Box and Wilson, 1951), as all or part of...
