Q: I am looking for research articles or review papers on Design of experiments (DOE) specially focused on Response surface methods, Split Plot designs, MANOVA, and Repeated measures designs and analysis.  Any help to locate these articles will be greatly appreciated.

A: Thank you for contacting ASQ. I received your request for information on the topic of Design of Experiments (DOE).  Design of Experiments is defined as “a method for carrying out carefully planned experiments on a process.  By using a prescribed plan for the set of experiments and analyzing the data according to certain procedures, a great deal of information can be obtained from a minimum number of experiments” (from The Quality Toolbox, 2nd Ed. by Nancy R. Tague, Quality Press, 2005).
