Abstract

The conventional experimental designs are not adequately contributing robustness of the experiment. Quality by design is an essential tool for time and cost effectiveness. Common design is factorial design. Factorial designing is more flexible and gives more knowledge about process and product and several software are also available. This manuscript gives the reader an in depth information of factorial experimental design, its theoretical background and how to implement this statistical tool in the real practical research.
