THE CONSTRUCTION AND ANALYSIS OF NON-ORTHOGONAL PLANS FOR THE 2N FACTORIAL EXPERIMENTS
Abstract
There are many situations in which an experimenter must estimate the important effects of a symmetrical factorial experiment with as few trials as possible. There are instances where, say, all two-factor interactions are important and the orthogonal plan necessary to estimate these parameters requires more trials than one can afford. If the experimenter is restricted to orthogonal fractional replicate plans he must either abandon the investigation or lose information on some of the interactions that may be important. The development of nonorthogonal plans by factor analysis is discussed. (Author)
