In this model with blocking there are no significant factors.
14.8.5 An article in Quality Engineering [“Designed Experiment to Stabilize Blood Glucose Levels” (1999–2000,
Vol. 12, pp. 8387)] reported on an experiment to minimize variations in blood glucose levels. The factors were
volume of juice intake before exercise (4 or 8 oz), amount of exercise on a Nordic Track cross-country skier (10 or 20
min), and delay between the time of juice intake (0 or 20 min) and the beginning of the exercise period. The experiment
was blocked for time of day. The data follow.

Thus, the effects of juice as well as the interactions between juice and delay and exercise and delay were marginally significant.
Additional degrees of freedom for error are needed and the normal probability plot of the effects does not indicate significant
effects.

confounds three of the four-factor interactions with blocks is the best possible blocking arrangement.

14.8.7 An article in Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference (ASMC) (May 2004, pp. 32529) stated that
dispatching rules and rework strategies are two major operational elements that impact productivity in a semiconductor
fabrication plant (fab). A four-factor experiment was conducted to determine the effect of dispatching rule time (5 or 10
min), rework delay (0 or 15 min), fab temperature (60 or 80°F), and rework levels (level 0 or level 1) on key fab
performance measures. The performance measure that was analyzed was the average cycle time. The experiment was
blocked for the fab temperature. Data modified from the original study are in the following table.

14.9.1 An article by L. B. Hare [“In the Soup: A Case Study to Identify Contributors to Filling Variability,” Journal of Quality
Technology 1988 (Vol. 20, pp. 3643)] described a factorial experiment used to study filling variability of dry soup mix
packages. The factors are A = number of mixing ports through which the vegetable oil was added (1, 2), B =
temperature surrounding the mixer (cooled, ambient), C = mixing time (60, 80 s), D = batch weight (1500, 2000 lb),
and E = number of days of delay between mixing and packaging (1, 7). Between 125 and 150 packages of soup were
sampled over an 8-hour period for each run in the design, and the standard deviation of package weight was used as the
response variable. The design and resulting data follow.
(a) What is the generator for this design?
(b) What is the resolution of this design?
(c) Estimate the factor effects. Which effects are large?
(d) Does a residual analysis indicate any problems with the underlying assumptions?

Selection” (1999, Vol. 11, pp. 405–415)] conducted a half replicate of a 25 factorial design to optimize the retort
process of beef stew MREs, a military ration. The design factors are x1 = sauce viscosity, x2 = residual gas,
x3 = solid/liquid ratio, x4 = net weight, x5 = rotation speed. The response variable is the heating rate index, a measure of
heat penetration, and there are two replicates.

14.9.3 R. D. Snee (“Experimenting with a Large Number of Variables,” in Experiments in Industry: Design, Analysis and
Interpretation of Results, Snee, Hare, and Trout, eds., ASQC, 1985) described an experiment in which a 251 design
with I = ABCDE was used to investigate the effects of five factors on the color of a chemical product.
The factors are A = solvent/reactant, B = catalyst/reactant, C = temperature, D = reactant purity, and
E = reactant pH. The results obtained are as follows:

(a) Prepare a normal probability plot of the effects. Which factors are active?
(b) Calculate the residuals. Construct a normal probability plot of the residuals and plot the residuals versus the fitted
values. Comment on the plots.
(c) If any factors are negligible, collapse the 251 design into a full factorial in the active factors. Comment on the
resulting design, and interpret the results.
(a) Several factors and interactions are potentially significant.
(b) There are no serious problems with the residual plots. The normal probability plot has some curvature and there is a
little more variability at the lower and higher ends of the fitted values.
