Symmetry and Design in Mixture Experiments

Abstract

The central composite design and designs based on the icosahedron and the dodecahedron are given for four component mixture systems. A uniform shell design is applied to the development of an obscurant smoke. Oils, cements, gasolines, and perfumes, are mixtures of components. The development of better products of these types involves experimentation with different formulations, or blends, of the components. Keywords: Surface methodology, Shell design, Geometry, Review, Central composite.
