The most comprehensive, single-volume guide to conducting experiments with mixtures

Experiments with Mixtures shows researchers and students how to design and set up mixture experiments, then analyze the data and draw inferences from the results. Virtually every technique that has appeared in the literature of mixtures can be found here, and computing formulas for each method are provided with completely worked examples. Almost all of the numerical examples are taken from real experiments. Coverage begins with Scheffe lattice designs, introducing the use of independent variables, and ends with the most current methods. New material includes:
* Multiple response cases
* Residuals and least-squares estimates
* Categories of components: Mixtures of mixtures
* Fixed as well as variable values for the major component proportions
* Leverage and the Hat Matrix
* Fitting a slack-variable model
* Estimating components of variances in a mixed model using ANOVA table entries
* Clarification of blocking mates and choice of mates
* Optimizing several responses simultaneously
* Biplots for multiple responses
