About William D. Kappele

Bill Kappele is a chemist with extensive experience in Design of Experiments (DOE), both as a researcher and teacher. He first encountered DOE at the beginning of his career at Hewlett‐Packard, where he was responsible for the design and development of dye‐based thermal inkjet inks. He earned numerous U.S. patents for his work. Later, at Hach, Bill developed simplified chemical analyses for water and wastewater treatment.

From Hach, Bill went on to Lexmark International, where he invented the first lightfast black ink for their inkjet printers. He then joined DOE pioneer Dave Doehlert at The Experiment Strategies Foundation, where Bill began to teach DOE to scientists and engineers.

A lifelong learner and born teacher, Bill has seen the powerful advantage that DOE training has given each of his students, from chemists and engineers who convert theories into real‐life products, to researchers who no longer rely on luck to produce results on time and within budget.

Bill draws on his depth of experience for real‐life examples to bring context to complex concepts

Blind Analysis for Design of Experiments and Response Surface Methodology: Minitab Edition Feb 2, 2017

by William Kappele

( 3 )

$25.00

“The first principle [of science] is that you must not fool yourself, and you are the easiest person to fool.” Richard P. Feynman This practical guide will teach you how to use Blind Analysis with Design of Experiments and Response Surface Methodology, so you can avoid fooling yourself. Written for engineers and scientists who are familiar with Design of Experiments and Minitab software, it is the first to cover the Blind Analysis aspect of DOE, which prevents the inadvertent bias—even your own—that can sometimes crop up in data analysis. Those new to the techniques will appreciate the brief introduction to Design of Experiments and Response Surface Methodology. You can then dive into the technical details behind Blind Analysis, including Triple Blind Studies. Two thorough examples complete the lesson, clearly demonstrating how to incorporate Blind Analysis into DOE/RSM, using the Minitab software package. Support materials are available online with data for the Minitab examples. Blind Analysis in Design of Experiments and Response Surface Methodology will prepare you to apply its powerful techniques to your work right away. Human nature is geared toward finding what we are looking for, instead of what’s actually there. Add Blind Analysis to your toolbox, and you’ll avoid fooling yourself, in your experiments.
