We need to decide whether we&#8217;ll conduct the experiment with a single egg size or use eggs of varying sizes.

Or maybe we&#8217;ll use multiple pots (different materials and sizes), not control the water volume, and have a variable burner?<\/p><p>How would you approach this?

Unlike scenario 1, we purchase eggs from different suppliers, so they vary in freshness, expiration date, and storage conditions. We use pots of different materials and sizes. We adjust the amount of water so that the egg is completely covered (meaning, the amount will vary depending on the pot). We add salt &#8220;by eye.&#8221;<\/p><p>In both scenarios, we boil 16 eggs according to the same experimental matrix. In each scenario, we obtain 16 results for each egg tested.<\/p><p>Which scenario is better? Which would you choose?<\/p><p>Most people answer: scenario 1. In this case, we feel more confident about the consistency of the results. Scenario 2 raises concerns that differences between pots, hotplates, and eggs could &#8220;mask&#8221; the effects of the studied factors and make drawing conclusions difficult.<\/p><p>However, the answer to the question of which scenario is better is not obvious. It all depends on the conditions under which we want to use the DoE results. If we are experimenting for our own needs, in our own kitchen, and know that we can always use the same pot and burner to cook eggs, add the same amount of water and optionally salt, and buy eggs of the same size from a single supplier, the chances are very high that the conclusions drawn from the DoE conducted according to Scenario 1 will prove true in practice.<\/p><p>However, if we are working on a general recipe for how to hard-boil a perfect egg and want to find tips that will work for a wide range of egg lovers, the chances that the conclusions from such a DoE will prove true in practice are very low. Every cook uses different hobs, pots, eggs from different sources, and so on. In such a case, the conclusions from the DoE according to Scenario 2 will be more universal, provided, of course, that the eggs are the size tested (in Scenario 2, the egg size was constant).<\/p><p>Every good analysis, regardless of how the data was collected (whether from process observation or experiment), should indicate the limitations of the inferences. They always exist and depend on decisions made during the planning phase. Inference constraints are simply the conditions under which the resulting conclusions will be valid in practice. It&#8217;s naive to believe that something tested on one machine will work identically on others \u2013 even those of the same type. Similarly, if something has been tested on one prototype, it won&#8217;t necessarily translate into mass production.<\/p><p>In short: the experiment should be conducted under the conditions under which we intend to apply the resulting conclusions.<\/p><p>Scenario 1 seems safer and allows us to detect even small effects of the tested factors. However, if these effects are unlikely to be replicated in practice, their value is negligible. This is a common source of frustration for experimenters \u2013 the DOE analysis indicates ideal process settings, but after implementation, the results are nonexistent. The problem isn&#8217;t with the DOE itself, but rather that the range of conditions tested was too narrow \u2013 that is, all untested factors were held constant, as in scenario 1.<\/p><p>To effectively and efficiently design experiments, it&#8217;s important to remember that the DOE is not just about the Design Structure (what the experiment matrix shows), but also about the Unit Structure \u2013 how we handle disturbances during the DoE. The more disturbances present during the DoE, the smaller the constraints on inference. Are scenarios 1 and 2 the same experiment? No \u2013 they are two different experiments, differing precisely in the universality of the conclusions we can draw from them.<\/p><p>Ultimately, the decision on how to conduct an experiment should be conscious and well-considered.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-72e3052 e-con-full e-grid e-con e-child \" data-id=\"72e3052\"
