Sufficient conditions for balanced incomplete block designs to be minimal fractional combinatorial treatment designs
Sufficient conditions are given for balanced incomplete block designs with block sizes three and four to be saturated minimal fractions of m items taken in mixture sizes of n = 3 and 4 for estimating the contrasts of item means and two-item specific mixing effects. Such fractions are useful for investigations involving mixtures of crops, drugs, marketing practices and other systems using mixtures of items. The balanced incomplete block design with parameters &ngr; = 6 and k = 4 is shown to be a saturated minimal fraction for estimating contrasts of item means and two-item and three-item specific mixing effects. This is a continuation of the work of Federer & Raghavarao (1987) and Federer (2001). Copyright Biometrika Trust 2003, Oxford University Press.
