In this paper, modified second order slope rotatable designs are introduced and modified slope rotatable central composite designs (SRCCD) are constructed for $2 {\le} v {\le} 17$ (v: the number of factors). Further, it can be shown for certain values of 'v', the modified SRCCD can be viewed as SRCCD constructed as with the technique of augmentation of second order rotatable design (SORD) using central composite design to SRCCD. These designs are useful in parts to estimate responses and slopes with spherical variance functions.

In this paper, a new method of modified second order slope rotatable designs (SOSRD) using balanced incomplete block designs (BIBD) for $4{\le}v{\le}16$ is presented. In this method the number of design points required is in some cases less than the number required in Victorbabu (2305) modified slope rotatable central composite designs. Further, a new method of construction of three level modified SOSRD using BIBD is presented. The modified SOSRD can be viewed as SOSRD constructed with the technique of augmentation of second order rotatable design (SORD) using BIBD to SOSRD. These designs are useful in parts to estimate responses and slopes with spherical variance functions.

A new method of construction of second order slope rotatable designs (SOSRD) using symmetrical unequal block arrangements (SUBA) with two unequal block sizes is suggested. The proposed method may sometimes lead to designs with less number of design points than those available in the literature. Further, bounds for the parameters of SOSRD are also obtained.

Kim(2002) proposed a second type of central composite design (CCD2), in which the positions of the axial points are indicated by two numbers. In this paper, we study properties of CCD2 when we are interested in estimating the slope of a response surface. Conditions are obtained for CCD2 to be slope-rotatable over axial directions, and some CCD2's are presented that have slope rotatability over axial directions. Also values of a measure of slope rotatability over axial directions are tabulated for various CCD2's. Finally, it is shown that CCD2 is always slope-rotatable over all directions.

In this paper, a review on second order slope rotatable designs (SOSRD) is studied. Further, different methods of constructions of SOSRD like slope rotatable central composite designs (SRCCD), SOSRD using balanced incomplete block designs (BIBD), SOSRD using pairwise balanced designs (PBD), SOSRD using partially balanced incomplete block type designs (PBIBD) and SOSRD using symmetrical unequal block arrangements (SUBA) with two unequal block sizes are examined in detail. A table is provided where for a range of different values of v (v stands for number of factors) the design points needed by different methods are compared. The optimum SOSRD with minimum number of design points for each factor is suggested for $2{\leq}v{\leq}16$.
