MANE 6313

Week 7, Module E

Student Learning Outcome

  • Select an appropriate experimental design with one or more factors,
  • Select an appropriate model with one or more factors,
  • Evaluate statistical analyses of experimental designs,
  • Assess the model adequacy of any experimental design, and
  • Interpret model results.

Module Learning Outcome

Describe the use of linear regression models in design of experiments


Regression Model

  • Alternative to fixed effects model
\[ y=\beta_0+\beta_1x+\varepsilon \]
  • Introduced in section 3.5 on page 76

Types of Factors

Montgomery classifies factors as either quantitative or qualitative

  • Quantitative factors

A factor whose levels can be associated with points on a numerical scaoe, such as temperature, pressure, or time

  • Qualitative

A factor for which levels cannot be arrangede in order of magnitude. Operators, batches of raw materia, and shifts are typical qualitatve factors becuase there is no reason to rank them in any particular numerical order


Problem 6.9 using Quantitative Variables

  • Factor A - Bit size
  • Lo setting: 1/16 = 0.0625
  • Hi setting: 1/8 = 0.125
  • Factor B - Speed
  • Lo setting: 40 rpm
  • Hi setting: 90 rpm

Data Frame

  • Must be created so that vectors are numeric not factor!
  • Cannot use fac.design

Data Frame


Linear (Regression) Model

Linear Model


Estimated Model

\[ \begin{aligned} \hat{y}&=\hat{\beta}_0+\hat{\beta}_1A+\hat{\beta}_2B+\hat{\beta_{12}}AB\\ \hat{y}&=26.775-152.0A+-0.465B+6.97AB \end{aligned} \]

Residual Analysis

  • Identical procedure to the fixed effects model
