What Are Fractional Factorial Experiments? In simple terms, a fractional factorial experiment is a subset of a full factorial experiment. Why Fractional Factorial Experiments? To run a full factorial experiment for k factors, we need 2k unique treatments. In other words, we need resources that can afford at least 2k runs. With k increasing, the […]

What is a Full Factorial DOE? In a full factorial experiment, all of the possible combinations of factors and levels are created and tested. For example, for two-level design (i.e.each factor has two levels) with k factors, there are 2k possible scenarios or treatments. Two factors, each with two levels, we have 22 = 4 treatments […]
