  1. Partition Experimental Designs for Sequential Process Steps: Application to Product Development Leonard Perry, Ph.D., MBB, CSSBB, CQE Associate Professor & ISyE Program Chair Industrial & Systems Engineering (ISyE) University of San Diego

  2. Example: Lens Finishing Processes • A company desires to improve their lens finishing process. Experimental runs must be limited due to cost concerns. What type of design do you recommend? Process One: Four Factors Process Two: Six Factors

  3. Objective of Partition Designs • To create a experimental design capable of handling a serial process consisting of multiple sequential processes that possess several factors and multiple responses. • Advantages: • Output from first process may be difficult to measure. • Potential interaction between sequential processes • Reduction of experimental runs

  4. Design Matrix #1 Design Matrix #2 Responses + = Partition Design

  5. Partition Design: Assumptions • Process/Product Knowledge required • Screening Experiment required • Resources limited, minimize runs • Sparsity-of-Effect Principle

  6. Perform Screening Experiment for Each Individual Process Construct Partition Design Perform Partition Design Experiment Perform Partition Design Analysis Select Significant Effects for Each Response Build Empirical Model for Each Response Calculate Partition Intercept Select Significant Effects for Intercept Build Final Empirical Model Partition Design: Methodology

  7. Review: Experimental Objectives • Product/Process Characterization • Determine which factors are most influential on the observed response. • “Screening” Experiments • Designs: 2k-p Fractional Factorial, Plackett-Burman Designs • Product/Process Improvement • Find the setting for factors that create a desired output or response • Determine model equation to relate factors and observed response • Designs: 2k Factorial, 2k Factorial with Center Points • Product/Process Optimization • Determine an operating or design region in which the important factors lead to the best possible response. (Response Surface) • Designs: Central Composite Designs, Box-Behnken Designs, D-optimal • Product/Process Robustness • Explore settings that minimize the effects of uncontrollable factors • Designs: Taguchi Experiments

  8. Example: First-order Partition Design • Two factors significant in each process • Total of k = 4 factors • Potential Interaction between processes • Partition Design • N = 5 runs (N = k - 1) (Saturated Design)

  9. Step 1: Perform Screening Experiment • Process 1: • Significant Factors: • Factor A • Factor B • Process 2: • Significant Factors: • Factor C • Factor D

  10. Step 2: Construct Partition Design • Partition Design: Design Criteria • First-order models • Orthogonal • D-optimal • Minimize Alias Confounding • Second-order models • D-efficiency • G-efficiency • Minimize Alias Confounding

  11. Step 2: Construct Partition Design • First-order Design (Res III or Saturated) • Orthogonal • D-optimality • Minimize Alias Confounding

  12. Step 2: Construct Partition Design Term Aliases Model A-A BD CD ABC Model B-B AB BC BD ABC ABD BCD Error C-C AB AD BC BD ABC ABD BCD Error D-D AB AC BCD

  13. Step 3: Perform Partition Design Experiment • Planning is key • Requires increased coordination between process steps • Identification of Outputs and Inputs

  14. Step 4: Perform Partition Design Analysis For Each Response: • Select Significant Effects • Build Empirical Model • Calculate Partition Intercept Response • Select Significant Effects for Intercept Response

  15. Step 4a: Select Significant Effects

  16. Step 4a: Select Significant Effects

  17. Step 4b: Build Empirical Model

  18. Step 4c:Calculate Partition Intercept Response Run 1 Int1i = - 8.85A - 16.47B + y1i Int11 = - 8.85(1) - 16.47(1) + 34.4 Int11 = 9.101 Calculations Int1i = - 8.85A - 16.47B + y1i for i= 1 to N

  19. Step 4: Partition Analysis • Repeat for Second Partition • Select Significant Effects • Build Empirical Model • Calculate Partition Intercept Response

  20. Step 4d:Select Significant Effects for Intercept

  21. Step 5:Build Final Empirical Model
