Experimental designs and their properties constitute a fundamental part of each
scientific research and from their applications we can receive meaningful
information about how a system reacts when it’s been under predetermined
conditions.
Experiment could be defined as a series of consecutive tests in which if purposeful
alternations are made in the levels of the factors, will result having a significant or
negligible impact on the outcome.
A factorial design represents a sequence of experiments in which factors are used
as input variables and their levels are specified. The factorial design obtains its form
through a matrix, in which each column represents a factor (input variable), and each
row represents an experimental run.
However, as the number of the effects that we are interested to evaluate is
increasing, the cost for the implementation of the experiment is rising proportionally.
The realization of factorial experiments in which many factors are investigated and
simultaneously the requirement that they are performed with the minimum financial
cost, led us to the minimum aberration and generalized minimum aberration designs
and we will analyse them in this thesis.
