Design of Experiments and Reliability Models.
Abstract
This is a final report of scientific achievements and activities sponsored by U.S. Air Force Office of Scientific Research under contract AFOSR 80-0170 as of July 31, 1985. Research activities have been concentrated on two main areas: Design of experiments and Reliability. Research on design of experiments relates directly to problems of data collection and analysis relevant to virtually all scientific experimentations. There is a strong need in the Air Force to reduce costs and save time in the collection and analysis of large amounts of data, such as communication, engineering, equipment testing, and aerospace medicine data. The reduction in costs and time should be done clearly without any damage to the statistical quality of the data being collected and analyzed. The research problems not only add to our store of knowledge about the multiple facets of data collection and data analysis in general, but these have immediate applications to many important problems with which the United States Air Force is faced. The main research emphasis has been to obtain designs which are efficient, easily applicable and yet meet the budgetary constraints.
