Purpose: A noncentral composite design method is to be developed to explore farther region for the first factorial design. A general guideline for sequential experimentation is provided. Methods: (1) A non-overlapping noncentral composite design (NNCD) is developed, in which the second factorial design shares one design point that indicates the best response value in the first factorial design. (2) Four composite designs are compared in terms of the four design evaluation criteria, which are D-, A, G, and I-optimality. (3) A follow-up design strategy is suggested based on the interaction effect, direction of improvement, number of factors. Results: (1) NNCD and model building method are presented, which is useful for exploring farther region from first factorial design block. (2) The performances of the four composite designs are compared. (3) A follow-up design strategy is suggested. Conclusion: (1) NNCD will be useful to explore farther region for the first factorial design. (2) A follow-up design strategy can be beneficial to the experimental practitioners for product and process design and improvement.

Two-level factorial designs are popular in industry due to their simplicity, efficiency, graphical interpretation, and flexibility in sequential experimentation. However, experimenters are often frustrated when they have factors with more than two levels. There have been some works on design of experiments with two- and four-level factors, which mostly deal with qualitative four-level factors. This paper discusses differences between qualitative and quantitative four-level factors. Optimal designs are provided for some designs with four-level quantitative and two-level factors.

The sheet metal stamping process continues to be a challenge to the field of science and engineering. The focus of this paper is to gain a better understanding of the sheet metal stamping process. By using Finite Element analysis and Design of Experiments, we are trying to analyze the stamping variables and determine which ones influence the stamping operations most.

In this work, alkyl methacrylate-based microgels were synthesized by an experimental design method, and their sebum absorption characteristics were investigated. The results of fractional factorial experimentation indicated that the cross-linking agent content, solvent content, and stirring speed were the main parameters in the synthesis of the microgels. The suitable synthesis conditions were determined by the response surface design method. Through a study of the monomer and solvent effects, it was confirmed that the microgel shows the highest sebum absorption ratio when t-butyl methacrylate is used as a monomer or when acetone is used as a solvent. The optimal microgel synthesis conditions for cosmetic application were determined, and the resulting microgel had a mean particle size of 4.7 μm and a sebum absorption ratio of 435%.

Purpose: In this paper we present a case study of applying quick and easy experimental design approach to develop a Halogen free flame retardant material for cellular phone charger cable. Methods: We employ sequential experimentation of mixture design, verification design, and factorial design. A quick and easy approach is adopted based on data investigation and graphical method instead of strict statistical analysis, which helped enhancing smooth communication with the engineers and speeding up the development process. Results: Flame retardant material in pellet type produced from the optimal condition is transported to the customer and tested, to pass the customer retardancy criteria. Conclusion: The quick and easy experimental design approach is considered to be useful in this case study.
