PPT-Chapter 3 Experimental Error

The derailment on October 22 1895 of the GranvilleParis Express that overran the buffer stop The engine careened across almost 100 feet 30 meters of the station concourse crashed through a twofoot thick wall shot across a terrace and sailed out of the station plummeting onto the Place de Rennes 30 feet 10 meters below where it stood on its nose While all of the passengers on board the train survived one woman on the street below was killed . The idea is that rather than a plain least squares approach or a statistical maximum likelihood approach there is a third important principle in use for estimating the parameters of a dynamic model based on recorded observations This technique consi An . Experimental Design. is a plan for the assignment of the treatments to the plots in the experiment. Designs differ primarily in the way the plots are grouped before the treatments are applied. How much restriction is imposed on the random assignment of treatments to the plots. Physics and Astrophysics Laboratory. Tutors:. Dr.A.Mahendrasingam (Singam) . a.mahendrasingam@keele.ac.uk.

Do NOT consistently occur throughout a lab. Sometimes called split-block design. For experiments involving factors that are difficult to apply to small plots. Three sizes of plots so there are three experimental errors. The interaction is measured with greater precision than the main effects. A Practical Guide. What you should already know well.
