Experimental Design – Comparative Study

Flat Design vs Traditional Design: Comparative Experimental Study

In the past few years flat user interface design has become the predom‐ inating visual style of operating systems, websites and mobile apps. Although flat design has been widely criticized by HCI and usability experts, empirical research on flat design is still scarce. We present the results of an experimental comparative study of visual search effectiveness on traditional and flat designs. The...

EJ3TS: Design And Experimental Study*

Experimental study of the BNL Electron Beam Test Stand (EBTS), which is a prototype of the Relativistic Hea@ Ion Collider (RHIC) Electron Beam Ion Source (EBIS), is currently underway. The basic physics and engineering aspects of a high current EBIS implemented in EBTS are outlined and construction of its main systems is presented. Efficient transmission of a 10 A electron beam through the ion ...

hydrochlorothiazide detection in urine samples by hplc-dad and experimental design dispersive l-l microextraction

hydrochlorothiazide (hct) is a diuretic agent which is shown to be effective in the treatment of hypertension. literature reports have demonstrated that urinary excretion data may be used to assess the bioavailability of various formulations containing this thiazide. also hct consumption by the athletes is one of the drugs which should be regulated by world anti-doping agency (wada), because of...

Comparative Study of Design with Application to Engineering Design

An Experimental Study on Tournament Design

Since recently, rank order tournaments have become quite popular for providing incentives in employment relationships. However, the consequences of different tournament designs are widely unexplored. This paper experimentally investigates different tournament design alternatives along two dimensions: tournament size and prize structure. We find that average effort tends to increase with a highe...
