A complete and up-to-date discussion of optimal split plot andsplit block designs
Variations on Split Plot and Split Block Experiment Designsprovides a comprehensive treatment of the design and analysis oftwo types of trials that are extremely popular in practice and playan integral part in the screening of applied experimentaldesigns--split plot and split block experiments. Illustrated withnumerous examples, this book presents a theoretical background andprovides two and three error terms, a thorough review of the recentwork in the area of split plot and split blocked experiments, and anumber of significant results.
Written by renowned specialists in the field, this bookfeatures:
* Discussions of non-standard designs in addition to coverage ofsplit block and split plot designs
* Two chapters on combining split plot and split block designs andmissing observations, which are unique to this book and to thefield of study
* SAS? commands spread throughout the book, which allow readers tobypass tedious computation and reveal startling observations
* Detailed formulae and thorough remarks at the end of eachchapter
* Extensive data sets, which are posted on the book's FTPsite
The design and analysis approach advocated in Variations on SplitPlot and Split Block Experiment Designs is essential in creatingtailor-made experiments for applied statisticians from industry,medicine, agriculture, chemistry, and other fields of study.

"Variations on Split Plot and Split Block Experiment Designsreminds me of the classics of design literature, because itcontains a plethora of examples of different situations. Thisstructure lets the reader either find exactly what is needed, orsomething close to it, to build a suitable design. The examples aregeared toward the agricultural statistician... As an industrialstatistician, I am gratified to see the publication of this book."(Technometrics, May 2010)
