Hi
We have demonstrations depicting the internal actions of the Maillard rotary
engine, and the first Wankel engine design that has the chamber rotating
around the piston.
We also have the Starapex engine, the Starluck engine, the Starnine engine
and the Crankwheel engine that have their interna

Neil,
You raise some excellent questions, and this has bugged
me for some time. SAS's creation of "least squares
means" (what a terrible name) has hurt this area.
I prefer to always refer to such quantities as
"predicted values" and to explain what they are
predicted for. And I usually predict

Ladies and Gentlemen,
What is the physical significance or meaning regarding a manufacturing process
whose output over an extended period of time has the same value for the
arithmetic, geometric and harmonic mean of a property, its purity, for
example?
What is the physical significance or mean

Why do articles appear in print when
study methods, analyses, results, and conclusions are somewhat faulty?

My first, and perhaps overly critical, response is that the editorial
practices are faulty. I don't f

Yes, I'v already thought of that. But the complement probability is also
hard for me. Can you help me?

Since other respondents have given the "official"
answer which is an oversimplification that has
become dogma, and is too often offered up without
adequate explanation. For the most part the
desire for absolute orthogonality comes from the
pre-computer era when it was difficult to design

Hello,
Would like to ask the design of experiment gurus to help me with the
following questions:
1. why designs for experiments should be orthogonal ?
2. which problems may I encounter if I use non-orthogonal design ?
Thank you in advance.
