Description
A complete and up-to-date discussion of optimal split plot and split block designs
Variations on Split Plot and Split Block Experiment Designs provides a comprehensive treatment of the design and analysis of two types of trials that are extremely popular in practice and play an integral part in the screening of applied experimental designs--split plot and split block experiments. Illustrated with numerous examples, this book presents a theoretical background and provides two and three error terms, a thorough review of the recent work in the area of split plot and split blocked experiments, and a number of significant results.
Written by renowned specialists in the field, this book features:
* Discussions of non-standard designs in addition to coverage of split block and split plot designs
* Two chapters on combining split plot and split block designs and missing observations, which are unique to this book and to the field of study
* SAS? commands spread throughout the book, which allow readers to bypass tedious computation and reveal startling observations
* Detailed formulae and thorough remarks at the end of each chapter
* Extensive data sets, which are posted on the book's FTP site
The design and analysis approach advocated in Variations on Split Plot and Split Block Experiment Designs is essential in creating tailor-made experiments for applied statisticians from industry, medicine, agriculture, chemistry, and other fields of study.

Reviews
"Variations on Split Plot and Split Block Experiment Designs reminds me of the classics of design literature, because it contains a plethora of examples of different situations. This structure lets the reader either find exactly what is needed, or something close to it, to build a suitable design. The examples are geared toward the agricultural statistician... As an industrial statistician, I am gratified to see the publication of this book." (Technometrics, May 2010)
