Anderson and Whitcomb pick up where they left off in DOE Simplified with RSM Simplified -- a practical tool for design of experiments that anyone with a minimum of technical training can understand and appreciate. Their approach is simple and fun for those who desire knowledge on response surface methods but are put off by the academic nature of other books on the topic.

RSM Simplified keeps formulas to a minimum and makes liberal use of figures, charts, graphs, and checklists. It offers many relevant examples with amusing sidebars and do-it-yourself exercises that will lead readers to the peak potential for their product quality and process efficiency.

What’s new in this edition:

  • A major revision of the software that accompanies this book (via download from the Internet) sets the stage for introducing RSM designs where the randomization of one or more hard-to-change (HTC) factors can be restricted.
  • A new chapter titled "Practical Aspects for RSM Success," which details workaround to using power to "right-size" designs that makes use of a tool called "fraction of design space" (FDS).
  • Methods to confirm your RSM models that will verify a successful process-optimization experiment.
