چکیده

A nested orthogonal array is an OA(N, k, s, g)which contains an OA(M, k, r, g) as a subarray. Here r < s andM<N . Necessary conditions for the existence of such arrays are obtained in the form of upper bounds on k, given N,M, s, r and g. Examples are given to show that these bounds are quite powerful in proving nonexistence. The link with incomplete orthogonal arrays is also indicated. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

On the construction of nested orthogonal arrays

Nested orthogonal arrays are useful in obtaining space-filling designs for an experimental set up consisting of two experiments, the expensive one of higher accuracy to be nested in a larger inexpensive one of lower accuracy. Systematic construction methods of some families of symmetric and asymmetric nested orthogonal arrays were provided recently by Dey [Discrete Math. 310 (2010), 2831–2834]....

Construction of some families of nested orthogonal arrays

A (symmetric) nested orthogonal array is a symmetric orthogonal array OA(N, k, s, g) which contains an OA(M,k, r, g) as a subarray, where M < N and r < s. In this communication, some methods of construction of nested symmetric orthogonal arrays are given. Asymmetric nested orthogonal arrays are defined and a few methods of their construction are described.

Construction of some new families of nested orthogonal arrays

Nested orthogonal arrays have been used in the design of an experimental setup consisting of two experiments, the expensive one of higher accuracy being nested in a larger and relatively less expensive one of lower accuracy. In this paper, we provide new methods of construction of two types of nested orthogonal arrays. MSC: 62K15

β-galactosidase Production by Aspergillus niger ATCC 9142 Using Inexpensive Substrates in Solid-State Fermentation: Optimization by Orthogonal Arrays Design

Background: Enzymatic hydrolysis of lactose is one of the most important biotechnological processes in the food industry, which is accomplished by enzyme &beta;-galactosidase (&beta;-gal, &beta;-D-galactoside galactohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.23), trivial called lactase. Orthogonal arrays design is an appropriate option for the optimization of biotechnological processes for the production of microbial...

Fixed point theory in generalized orthogonal metric space

In this paper, among the other things, we prove the existence and uniqueness theorem of fixed point for mappings on a generalized orthogonal metric space. As a consequence of this, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of fixed point of Cauchy problem for the first order differential equation.
