• Response surface methodology (RSM) is a collection of techniques for
application where
• A response of interest is influenced by several variables
• The objective is to optimize this response
• Made use of highly fractionated factorial designs and other types of fractional
designs obtained from orthogonal arrays, where `an orthogonal design for
controllable factors is “crossed” with a separate orthogonal design for noise factors
(see Table 13-3)
• Taguchi design strategy leads to very large experiment (72 runs in Table 13-3)
• However while controllable factor noise factor interactions can be estimated
(see Figure 13-11), do not obtain any information on interactions between
controllable variables

In Table 13-3:
• Panel (a) contains four controllable factors, each at three levels, and is
referred to as the inner array design
• Panel (b) contains three uncontrollable factors, each at two levels, and
is referred to as the outer array design
