Abstract
For a given fractional 2 m factorial (2 m -FF) designT, the constitution of a block plan to divideT intok (2r−1<k≦2 r ) blocks withr block factors each at two levels is proposed and investigated. The well-known three norms of the confounding matrix are used as measures for determining a “good” block plan. Some theorems concerning the constitution of a block plan are derived for a 2 m -FF design of odd or even resolution. Two norms which may be preferred over the other norm are slightly modified. For each value ofN assemblies with 11≦N≦26, optimum block plans fork=2 blocks with block sizes [N/2] andN−[N/2] minimizing the two norms are presented forA-optimal balanced 24-FF designs of resolutionV given by Srivastava and Chopra (Technometrics,13, 257–269).
