Design of Experiments Video-Supported Learning Program

Today's highly competitive environment leaves no time for trial and error. DOE is a proven way to identify and understand how process factors affect output. With this information, you can develop the optimum balance between factors and achieve major improvements in quality, cost and productivity.

This program emphasizes application over theory and statistical calculations. It is a practical way to conduct and analyze true knowledge-generating experiments using included DOE Wisdom software, hands-on teaching aids and real-world examples.

Target Audience

• Engineers
• Others who participate in designed experiments or approve design expenditures

• Foundations
• Design
• Analysis
• Applications

Program Details

Unit 1: Foundations Overview of the steps of designed experimentation: - Planning - Conducting - Analyzing Objectives of designed experiments Terms and concepts Benefits of using designed experiments Guidelines for successful experimentation

Unit 2: Design Characteristics of a good design Best order and manner in which to run trials Features, advantages, disadvantages of design types: - Design matrix considerations: orthogonality, balance, aliasing, resolution, interactions, blocking, replication, repetition, randomization - 2-level designs: full factorials, fractional factorials, Plackett-Burman - 3-level designs: full factorials, fractional factorials, Box-Behnken, Box-Wilson (central composite designs)

Unit 3: Analysis How to take a practical approach to interpreting results Simple graphical analysis Interpreting ANOVA Interpreting multiple regression analysis

Unit 4: Application Practical advice on implementing DOE Explanations of actual experiments and their results Recommendations for how to ensure successful experiments Dealing with "failed" experiments
