Abstract
*A six-component balance calibration is simulated to compare a conventional one factor at a time (OFAT) loading schedule that has been in use at Langley Research Center for several decades, with a more recent balance loading schedule based on the Modern Design of Experiments (MDOE). MDOE experiment designs incorporate certain quality assurance tactics into the design of the experiment, which are described. MDOE and OFAT calibration results are compared for the same balance for four prescribed error environments, each featuring a random component of unexplained variance and various degrees of systematic error. The effectiveness of MDOE quality assurance tactics is quantified by several metrics. Nomenclature n = Number of points in a regression p = Number of terms in a regression model, including the intercept σ
