Main themes

- Experimental cycle and strategies - Linear regression as a tool to analyse the results of a designed experiment - Problem formalisation and qualities of an experimental design - Factorial designs and derivatives - Designs for the estimation of response surfaces - Optimal designs - Experimental design as viewed by Taguchi - Designs for mixture experiments - Simultaneous optimisation of several responses - Simplex and EVOP methodology to optimise one response

Aims

At the end of the course, the student will be awared of the interest of using a methodology to design experiments that provides a maximum information at the lower cost. He will gain knowledge on different possible classes of experimental designs and on the statistical methods available to analyse experiment results.
