I appriciate if anybody share the statistical design of experiment book with me? :thanks:

Look at this post + attachment DOE: Choosing a Design - Factors that affect the choice of design (http://elsmar.com/Forums/showpost.php?p=148709&postcount=1) from our Fellow Cover Tim Folkerts. Tim's excellent paper on DOE contains a bibliography.

I recommend

Design and Analysis of Experiments by Douglas Montgomery, and
Statistics for Experimenters by Box, Hunter and Hunter

The latter is easier to read, but the former is the best known.

Friends,

Here is the list from Tim Folkerts' paper:

It depends on what you need experiments for.
if primarily for problem solving, you woudl benefit from books that deal with how to determine the proper factors and levels as well as experimental structure and analysis. in this case I recommend 2 books to start:
Statistical Engineering: An Algorithm for Reducing Variation in Manufacturing Processes by Stefan H. Steiner and R. Jock Mackay
and
Process Quality Control: Troubleshooting And Interpretation of Data by Ellis R. Ott, Edward G. Schilling, and Dean V. Neubauer

if you are looking to use DOE for improving designs or optimizing processes then I would recommend:

Understanding Industrial Experimentation by Donald J. Wheeler
RSM Simplified: Optimizing Processes Using Response Surface Methods for Design of Experiments by Mark J. Anderson and Patric J. Whitcomb
and the montgomery book mentioned above.

these are good starts.

Here are some Books available from ASQ: Design of Experiment Books (http://www.asq.org/quality-press/search-results/index.html?page=category&category=14aaaDesign%20of%20Experiments)

I find "Understanding Industrial Experimentation" by Donald J. Wheeler very understandable and useful.

HI

I was exposed to Design of Experiments by Keki R. Bhote about 12 years ago; I found the book and the training by Keki R. Bhote very interesting and useful.

With kind regards,

Ramakrishnan

this is a decent book on problem solving DOEs. But I've found Steiner & MacKay's Statistical Engineering book to be even better. They have a lot more detail and are better at the subleties and nuances that are very important in Problem solving investigations.
