A COMBINED ANALYSIS OF EXPERIMENTS WHEN TREATMENTS DIFFER AMONG EXPERIMENTS

Meta-analysis of Multiple Treatments Experiments

THE EMPIRICAL BAYES METHOD OF ANALYSIS OF A SERIES OF EXPERIMENTS

The classical method of analysis of a series of experiments is somewhat involved in being conditional on various, occasionally unrealistic, assumptions such as homogeneity of variances of experimental error, lack of interactions of treatments and places,etc. In this work, we adopt a Bayesian view to account for such heterogeneities. Our appoach is illustrated by a real series of experiment...

Requirement of a conservative cytotoxicity assay selection in cellular experiments

Assessment of the cellular effects of natural and/or synthetic products is one of the major goals in biological experiments. This assessment may be conducted at different levels; cellular viability, cellular biological activity, and cellular structure and morphology. Different assays are available for any of above purposes. It is becoming of a routine exercise to apply any of these assays, and ...

Combined application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and design of experiments (DOE) to hydrodynamic simulation of a coal classifier

Combining the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and the design of experiments (DOE) methods, as a mixed approach in modeling was proposed so that to simultaneously benefit from the advantages of both modeling methods. The presented method was validated using a coal hydraulic classifier in an industrial scale. Effects of operating parameters including feed flow rate, solid content and baffle le...

Large Scale Experiments Data Analysis for Estimation of Hydrodynamic Force Coefficients Part 1: Time Domain Analysis

This paper describes various time-domain methods useful for analyzing the experimental data obtained from a circular cylinder force in terms of both wave and current for estimation of the drag and inertia coefficients applicable to the Morison’s equation. An additional approach, weighted least squares method is also introduced. A set of data obtained from experiments on heavily roughened circul...
