Design
of Experiments for UV/EB Scientists and Engineers
FACULTY
Dr. Allan Guymon, University of Iowa
WHO
SHOULD ATTEND?
This course will provide the foundation and motivation for using
Design of Experiments to improve and optimize UV/EB curing processes
and formulations. Students attending the course do not need previous
experience in Design of Experiments or statistics. The course is
appropriate for individuals with backgrounds ranging from technicians
to Ph.D. scientists and engineers.
COURSE
DESCRIPTION
Design of Experiments (DOE) is a powerful technique that allows
the maximum amount of information to be obtained by performing the
minimum number of experiments. For those in production, product
design, or quality control, knowledge of DOE can dramatically enhance
effectiveness in solving problems and optimizing systems. Most experiments
not based on DOE concepts are two-dimensional, i.e. one variable
is changed while a response is measured. DOE, on the other hand,
varies all of the important variables simultaneously and systematically,
thereby examining the response(s) in many dimensions.
Even with the great potential of DOE, few are familiar with its
concepts. The goal of this course is to provide the basic tools
needed for DOE implementation in the UV/EB industry. While DOE is
based on statistical principles, primary emphasis will be placed
on practical aspects in using and applying DOE techniques and on
the motivation behind using DOE. Specific topics that will be addressed
include:
- Background
and History of DOE
- Steps
in a DOE
- DOE
Terminology
- Screening
Designs
- Model
Building Designs
- Mixture
(Formulation) Designs
CEU
CREDIT
Attendees taking this course will receive 0.6 CEU credits from the
University of Iowa. CEU credit forms will be handed out to students
the day of the course.
