Summary: This course is for JMP users who deal with mixture or formulation experiments. The course demonstrates how to use various approaches to create an appropriate experimental design for commonly encountered mixture situations. The analysis of mixture experiments is also covered, including finding the optimum formulation.
Duration: 14 hours of content.
Modalities:
- live online with instructor -- This course is available periodically (but infrequently) in our public course schedule. The public courses are an opportunity to learn this content with a live instructor, but they are currently only offered in English and at times most convenient to a US audience (because most of our instructors are in US time zones). Don't see what you are looking for? Let us know.
- through a third-party training vendor -- Any course in our JMP Curriculum could be taught by a licensed training vendor, including through the training department at your own company. Contact your JMP representative to learn more.
Prerequisites: Before attending this advanced course, you should complete the JMP®: Classic Design of Experiments or JMP®: Custom Design of Experiments course or have equivalent experience.
This course is not an introduction to design of experiments.
Learning Objectives:
- Use factorial-type designs in mixture scenarios.
- Design mixture experiments using traditional and advanced design strategies.
- Properly analyze and interpret formulation experiments.
- Characterize response behavior over the formulation space with a model.
- Find optimal formulations.
Course Outline:
Introduction to Mixture Designs

Mixture Scenarios without Constraints for Linear Responses
- Define the Scheffé model for the linear response.
- Use simplex-lattice designs and simplex-centroid designs for mixtures with linear response.
- Use custom designs for mixtures with linear response.
- Analyzing mixture experiments.
Mixture Scenarios with Constraints for Linear Responses
- Accommodate constraints within and among mixture components.
- Use pseudo-component coding to reduce imposed collinearity.
- Use custom design for mixtures with constraints.
Mixture Designs for Nonlinear Response
- Define the Scheffé model for the nonlinear response, including cubic models.

- Use simplex-lattice design, simplex-centroid design, and ABCD design.
- Use custom design.
Advanced Mixture Scenarios
- Define and interpret the Cox model.
- Combine process factors with mixture components in the same design.
- Design experiments for "mixtures within mixtures."
- Use and interpret Snee screening simplex design.
- Study space-filling designs for mixture experiments.
