Construction of Partially Balanced Incomplete Block (Pbib) Designs Using Factorial Treatment Combinations

Davinder Kumar Garg, Syed Aadil Farooq

Abstract :

In this paper, we have constructed two series of two and nth (n=2,3,…) associate class partially balanced incomplete block (PBIB) designs by establishing a link between PBIB designs and factorial treatment combinations. Some numerical illustrations of construction of such type of designs are also discussed in detail. Efficiencies of the newly constructed PBIB designs are also computed for the purpose of comparisons. During the study, it was found that some designs are new, and some newly constructed designs are more efficient as compared to the existing designs.
