The optimization folio in DOE++ provides three tools that allow you to examine factor level combinations and evaluate how well they meet your response goal(s). These tools can be accessed by choosing Insert > Optimizations > Optimization.
The Select Optimization Tool window will appear. In this window, you will select a folio to optimize and then select one of the following:
The optimal solution plot helps you determine the factor level combination that will produce the user-specified optimum value for one or more responses. This plot is available for all designs with at least two factors.
The overlaid contour plot displays all of the factor level combinations for two quantitative factors that will produce response values that fall within the user-specified goal. This plot is available for all designs with at least two quantitative factors.
The dynamic overlaid contour plot displays a series of overlaid contour plots side by side. The x- and y-axes represent two of the quantitative factors. The level of one or more additional factors is varied across the plots. This plot is available for all designs with at least three factors, where at least two of the factors are quantitative.
Note that each optimization folio can have only one optimization tool of each type.
What's Changed? In DOE++ 1, the optimal solutions plot was created on the Optimization tab within the standard folio. The Synthesis version of DOE++ adds two more optimization tools and puts all of the optimization tools into a single folio.
