Abstract:

Fold-over design is standard follow-up experiment commonly used in the practices. Optimal fold-over plans for two-level regular fractional factorial designs were discussed by Li and Lin [2003]. A fold-over design is a design, which combines the initial design and a fold-over plan. A fold-over plan is reversing the signs of one or more columns of the initial design. We extend their ideas into fold-over designs for three-level by adding different fold-over sets to the initial design. The combined designs are the optimal regular designs based on resolution and minimum aberration criteria (Fries and Hunter [1980]). The optimal fold-over designs increases resolution or de-alias the main effect and its interactions. Tables of such fold-over designs are given and some properties are discussed.
