An experimental and statistical study of interaction effects of matrix particle size, reinforcement particle size and volume fraction on the flexural strength of Al–SiCp composites by P/M using central composite design

Optimization of Mechanical and Wear Properties of Functionally Graded Al6061/SiC Nanocomposites Produced by Friction Stir Processing (FSP)

“…Table 1 presents the effect of mass fraction distribution on the weight loss of Al-SiC composites. As listed in Table 1, although wear loss decreased with increase in surface mass fraction, this trend significantly declined for F 13 , because high-fraction SiC can negatively affect the mechanical behavior since particle clustering occurs as SiC fraction increases [23,24]. This trend is in agreement with the results reported in other researches [25,26].…”

Effect of sintering parameters using the central composite design method, electronic structure and physical properties of yttria-partially stabilized ZrO2 commercial ceramics

“…The number of runs by the CCD method is given by: [2 k +2k + n c ], where 2 k refers to the full factorial design, 2k are the axial points and n c are the central points (usually three to five points are used) [41].…”

Characterization of Electrospinning Parameters of Chitosan/Poly(vinyl alcohol) Nanofibers to Remove Phenol via Response Surface Methodology

“…Among different approaches, central composite design (CCD) is an appropriate experimental design method which provides high quality predictions in studying linear, quadratic and interaction effects of parameters that influence a system. Furthermore, one of the efficient techniques for obtaining the optimum conditions in a multivariable system is response surface methodology (RSM) [13]. Furthermore, one of the efficient techniques for obtaining the optimum conditions in a multivariable system is response surface methodology (RSM) [14].…”
