Because of complex aliasing, nonregular designs have traditionally been used for screening only main effects. However, complex aliasing actually may allow some interactions entertained and estimated without making additional runs. According to hierarchical principle, the minimum aberration has been used as an important criterion for selecting regular fractional factorial designs. The criterion is not applicable to nonregular designs. In this paper, we give a criterion for choosing fractional factorial designs based on the fan theory. The criterion is focused on the partial ordering given by set inclusion on estimable sets which is called leaves.

Near Infrared transmittance Spectroscopy (NIRS) was used to evaluate and quantify the pharmaceutical active compounds. In the paper, taurine (2-Aminoethanesulfonic acid) was quantitatively analyzed in commercial pharmaceutical preparations. For calibration a central composite factorial design was used to determine concentrations of ingredients in reference samples. For the quantitative analysis of taurine, the most suitable data analysis method includes the calculation of second derivatives and a partial least squares regression (PLSR) model. By NIR spectrometry, combined with PLSR, the taurine concentration was successfully predicted with a relative standard error of prediction (SEP) lower than 1.04%.

Design of experiment (DOE) method is employed for a systematic and highly efficient optimization of Ga-doped ZnO thin films synthesized by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) process. We sequentially adopted fractional-factorial design (FD) and central composite design (CCD) of the DOE methods. In fractional-FD stage, significant factors to make conductive electrode are found to target-substrate (T-S) distance and oxygen partial pressure. Moreover, correlation among the process factors is elucidated using surface profile modeling. Electrical properties of the GZO films grown on a glass substrate had been optimized to find that the lowest electrical resistivity of about $1.8'10^{-4}Wcm$ which was acquired with the T-S distance and the oxygen pressure of 4 cm and 7 mTorr, respectively. During the DOE-fueled optimization process, the transparency of the GZO films is ensured higher than 85 %.

This study first investigates relationships among fashion consumer's positive emotion toward social value seeking activities (SVSA), enterprise image (EI), enterprise-perceived quality (EPQ), and purchase intention. Additionally, it demonstrates if the confirmed relationships are different in similar SVSA between social enterprise and cause-related marketing (CRM). An online experiment using a 2 (the implementation organization of social values: social enterprise vs CRM) ${\times}2$ (SVSA: support of vulnerable group vs environmental protection) factorial design was conducted to test the established hypotheses. Participants were randomly assigned to one of four conditions, and the collected data were analyzed using a partial least squares structure equation modeling (PLS-SEM) and partial least squares multi-group analysis (PLS-MGA). The results revealed that positive emotion toward SVSA directly influenced EI and purchase intention. EI and EPQ were identified as sequential mediators linking positive emotion toward SVSA and purchase intention. A finding for similarity in consumer response paths between social enterprises and CRM highlights that social enterprises need to develop a marketing strategy distinguished from CRM.

This study was carried out to determine the optimal liquid medium composition of ginseng (Panax ginsengC.A. Meyer) root induced by growth regulators in order to improve the yield of saponin production. Submerged culture conditions were optimized using the fractional factorial design with 4 factors and 3 levels by a RSM computer program The effects of various pH values of medium, sucrose, nitrogen and phosphate concentration on the saponin content of the ginseng root were investigated. The optimum phosphate concentration determined by a partial differentiation of the model equation, pH of medium, sucrose and nitrogen concentration were phosphate 93 mg/L, pH 5.5, sucrose 5% and nitrogen 50 mg/L, respectively. Under these conditions, the predicted saponin content of ginseng root was estimated at 0.308%.

To develop the production of ginseng root using plant tissue culture technology, submerged culture conditions were optimized by means of the fractional factorial design with 4 factors and 3 levels by a RSM computer program. The ginseng (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer) roots induced by plant growth regulators were cultured on SH medium and the effects of various pH of medium, sucrose concentration, nitrogen concentration and phosphate concentration on fresh weight of the ginseng root were investigated. The fresh weight of ginseng root increased with a decrease in nitrogen concentration and fresh weight of ginseng root varied from 1.00 to 2.33g under various conditions. The optimum pH of medium and sucrose concentration determined by a partial differentiation of the model equation, nitrogen and phosphate concentration were pH 5.6, sucrose 3.8%, nitrogen 50 mg/L and phosphate 80.7 mg/L, respectively. Under these conditions, the predicted growth of ginseng root was estimated to be 2.36g.

The inflence of hydrophilic vehicles on percutaneous absorption rate of griseofulvin was studied using intact skin of full thickness of hairless rat. The in vitro absorption rates were used as the characteristics for deciding the optimum formula of ointment vehicles. The optimum formula of vehicle compositions for maximum absorption rate was obtained from the polynomial regression equation and the two graphical techniques, contour graph and partial derivative graph. It was composed of sodium lauryl sulfate (1.65 W /W%), white petrolatum (16.5 W /W%), propylene glycol (12.0 W /W%), and stearyl alcohol (19.6W /W%). The experimental value obtained from the optimum formula and the prediction value were 33.99 and 33.87 ${\mu}g/\sqrt{min}$, respectively. From these results, it was believed that optimum formula for semisolid dosage forms could be obtained from the application of the optimization technique used in this study.

To develop the methodology of the quantitative analysis of saponin in ginseng milk, conditions of the saponin extraction were optimized using the fractional factorial design with 3 variables and 3 levels by a RSM computer program. The extraction of saponin increased with an increase in extraction temperature up to $90^{\circ}C$ and then decreased significantly at $100^{\circ}C$. Extraction time affected the saponin yield in a similar trend. On the other hand, decreasing cooling temperature increased the amount of the saponin extracted. Recovery yield of the saponin from ginseng milk varied from 70.0% to 92.9%. The optimum extraction temperature, time and cooling temperature determined by partial differentiation of the model equation were $86^{\circ}C$, 2.83 hrs and $4^{\circ}C$, respectively. Key words Ginseng milk, saponin, response surface methodology.

The objective of present study is to investigate the effect of granulated blast furnace slag (GBS) as partial substitution of natural sand on behaviour of cement mortar. For this, the methods of factorial design with water cement (w/c) ratio and incorporation percentages of GBS as replacement of natural fine aggregate i.e., GBS(%) as factors are followed. The levels of factor w/c ratio are fixed at 0.4, 0.45, and 0.5 and the levels of factor GBS(%) are kept fixed as 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100%. The compressive strength (CS) of mortar after 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90 days, and water absorption (WA) are chosen as responses of the study. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) of experimental results has been carried out and those are illustrated by ANOVA tables, main effect and interaction plots. The results of study depict that the selected factors have substantial influence on the strength and WA of mortar. However, the interaction of factors has no substantial impact on CS and WA of mixes.
