The purpose of this article is to review the possibility of practical use of the concept of D-optimality in response surface design. Second order quasi-D-optimum designs on a cube have been built and their high efficiency proved. Using the computer, a number of different second order response surface designs, previously built, have been compared. It has been proved that the D-optimum concept, being more general than the rotatable one, can be used as the theoretical basis for building and comparing response surface designs in use.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
