This paper describes the application of a combined orthogonal array design and overlapping resolution mapping to the optimization of miceller electrokinetic chromatography for the separation of 10 substituted benzenes. The most important factors were first determined according to an OA16(2(15)) through 16 pre-designed experiments; a second set of experiments was carried out according to a trian...

In this paper, the problem of target detection in phased-MIMO radars is considered and target detection performance of phased-MIMO radars is compared with MIMO and phased-array radars. Phased-MIMO radars combine advantages of the MIMO and phased-array radars. In these radars, the transmit array will be partitioned into a number of subarrays that are allowed to overlap and each subarray transmit...

When an orthogonal array is projected on a small number of factors, as is done in screening experiments, the question of interest is the structure of the projected design, by which we mean its decomposition in terms of smaller arrays of the same strength. In this paper we investigate the decomposition of arrays of strength t having t + 1 factors. The decomposition problem is well-understood for...

The orthogonal array design has been used to determine the optimum conditions for gold recovery from Zarshuran refractory gold sulfide ore (Iran) by direct cyanidation and roasting-cyanidation. The Taguchi method was used as the experimental design to determine the optimum conditions of dissolution behavior of gold with cyanidation and roasting-cyanidation from Zarshuran refractory gold ore . T...

In this paper, we show that the projection of a regular orthogonal array of strength t onto more than t factors consists of replicates of either a fractional factorial or a full factorial design of strength t, depending on the number of factors retained in the projection.

We propose an approach to constructing a new type of design, a sliced space-filling design, intended for computer experiments with qualitative and quantitative factors. The approach starts with constructing a Latin hypercube design based on a special orthogonal array for the quantitative factors and then partitions the design into groups corresponding to different level combinations of the qual...

A simple orthogonal array OA(q2n−1, q2n−2, q, 2) is constructed by using the action of a large subgroup of PGL(n + 1, q2) on a set of non degenerate Hermitian varieties in PG(n, q2).

An (r,λ)-design with mutually balanced nested subdesigns ( for brevity, (r,λ)-design with MBN ) is introduced firstly in this paper. It is shown that an (r,λ)design with MBN is equivalent to a balanced array of strength 2 with s symbols. By the use of a nested design and an orthogonal array, a construction of an (r,λ)design with MBN is given. A direct construction of such an (r,λ)-design, based...

1. In poultry investigations, the main interest is often to study the effects of many factors simultaneously. Two or three level factorial designs are the most commonly used for this type of investigation. However, it is often too costly to perform when number of factors increase. So a fractional factorial design, which is a subset or a fraction of a full factorial design, is an alternative. Th...
