Determination of influential factors on EDMed surface properties using Plackett-Burman design

In many investigations, large number of process, or design parameters that are initially thought to affect the outcomes or outputs may not really have statistical significant influence on them. Screening experiments are used to identify the key parameters (factors) that significantly affect these ou...
