A mixture experiment is a special type of response surface experiment in which factors are the ingredients or components of a mixture, and the response is a function of the proportions of each ingredient. Evolutionary operation is useful to improve on-line full-scale manufacturing process by systematically changing the levels of the process variables without jeopardizing the product. This paper presents an evolutionary operation procedure with mixture variables for large-scale mixture production process which can be beneficial to practitioners who should improve on-line mixture quality while maintaining the production amount of the mixture product.

A mixture experiment is a special type of the response surface experiment in which the factors are the components of a mixture, and the response variable is a function of the proportions of each component. When a new mixture product is developed, there are a large number of components, and the first objective of the experiment is to identify the ones that are most important by doing a screening experiment. We propose a method of screening mixture components using the correlation coefficients when t-tests cannot identify significant components.

Lime-bordeaux mixture has been used to prevent diseases in the field of ginseng. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of lime-bordeaux depending on the concentration and treatment time on major diseases of ginseng such as Alternaria blight and anthracnose, and to evaluate the root growth of ginseng. Lime-bordeaux caused damage on leaf when it was sprayed on ginseng between April and early May. No difference was found in root growth by spraying lime-bordeaux mixture between ratio 4-4 and 8-8 ratio in concentration. Plot of 6-6 raito and 8-8 ratio appeared to be similar efficacy compared to that of practical chemical control. However, the plot of 4-4 ratio showed lower than that of chemical control.

Korean ginseng has been used for thousands of years as an important medicinal plant. Lime-Bordeaux mixture (LBM) was made with copper sulfate and quicklime, which was sprayed instead of pesticides in ginseng field. Net photosynthesis ($P_N$) was compared between Treatment and Non-treatment of LBM in 3 Year Old Ginseng. $P_N$ in control plot recorded $2.94{\mu}mol\;(CO_2)\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$ at the first day of experiment, which was similar until the last day of experiment. However, The $P_N$ in LBM recorded $2.23{\mu}mol\;(CO_2)\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$, which was lower than that in control plot. As time goes by, The $P_N$ in LBM was gradually increased up to $3.21{\mu}mol\;(CO_2)\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$ and finally, it was similar with that in control plot at 7th day as a $3.20{\mu}mol\;(CO_2)\;m^{-2}s^{-1})$.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of pasture types(mixture and mono tall fescue pasture) and endophyte infection on the animal behavior of Korean native cattle at the Experimental Field of Grassland and Forage Crops Division, National Livestock Research Institute, Suweon, in 1994. The results obtained are sumunarized as follows: DM intake of Korean native cattle was increased with mixture and endophyte-free tall fescue for both pasture types. Mixture and endophyte-free tall fescue showed good animal preference. Daily grazing time was increased with mixture and endophyte-free tall fescue in monoculture, while annual grazing period was increased with monoculture and endophyte-infect tall fescue. Amount of drinking water of Korean native cattle was increased with tall fescue monoculture rather than mixture, however the amount of drinking water was higher with endophyte-infect tall fescue in monoculture. Salt intake of Korean native cattle was increased with mixture and endophyte-6ee tall fescue in monoculture. Rectal temperature of Korean native cattle was not influenced by pasture types and endophyte infection. Based on the results of this experiment, DM intake of Korean native cattle and daily grazing time were increased by mixture and endophyte-free tall fescue with good quality.

Collinearity among independent variables can have severe effects on the precision of response estimation for some region of interest in the experiments with mixture. A method of finding optimal linear restriction on regression parameter in linear model for mixture experiments in the sense of minimizing integrated mean squared error is studied. We use the formulation of optimal restrictions on regression parameters for estimating responses proposed by Park(1981) by transforming mixture components to mathematically independent variables.

The concept of slope rotatability introduced by Hader and Park(1978) is available when we are interested in the difference of the responses. Since there can be constraints on the factor levels in mixture experiments, there arises a need for adaptation of the concept of slope rotatability and the measure to assess it. In this article, measures of slope rotatability in mixture experiments are proposed to quantify the amount of slope rotatability for a given design. Measures for a restricted region design as well as for an unrestricted region design are presented. Then, the designs having different optimalities are compared with respect to these measures by some examples.

A numerical study is conducted to investigate propulsion performance enhancement based on S225 experiment case of ISL(French-German Research Institute of Saint-Louis)'s superdetonative ram accelerator. For govern equation, multi-species Navier-Stokes equation coupled with Baldwin-Lomax turbulence modeling is used. Govern equation is discretized by Roe's FDS and integrated by LU-SGS time integration. Detailed chemical reaction about $H_2/O_2/CO_2$ for high pressure is considered. $2H_2+O_2+2.5CO_2$ mixture was used for propellant gas. For the same over-driven factor, the launching speed of computation was faster than one of S225. Another configuration and condition of S225 was applied. A flame structure is very different from S225. For strong mixture case, it shows ignition by viscous effect. Acceleration and speed increment is higher than S225 computation and experiment. By using more strong mixture, propulsion performance was enhanced.

The main goal of this study was to find an optimal surfactant mixture composition for the development of the best performing cleansing products. Three different surfactants including sodium cocoyl alaninate (SCoA), cocamidopropyl betaine (CPB), and decyl glucoside (DG) were selected, which showed excellent properties in detergency, foaming height, and contamination rate through preliminary experiments. The experiments by simplex centroid design matrix for surfactant mixtures were performed, and the regression analysis was conducted with the experimental data. Surface response model equations, which is statistically significant (p < 0.05), were obtained. The optimal composition of the surfactant mixture was also determined as SCoA (0.22), CPB (0.78), and DG(0.00) from simultaneous optimization of three response variables.
