Response surface analysis of high fructose corn syrup cakes emulsified with sucrose esters and mono- and diglycerides
… of the oil phase with and without emulsifiers. Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to predict the levels of HFCS required with and without emulsifiers to produce cakes of relatively high volume, moistness, tenderness and low aftertaste. Cakes prepared with HFCS as a partial or …

Predictive modeling of the aerobic growth of <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> 196E using a nonlinear model and response surface analysis
… developed using a modified Gompertz function and response surface methodology. Each predictive equation required the estimation of only 23 parameters with a biological meaning. These models determined the significance of time, incubation temperature, sodium chloride (NaCI) concentration, and …

Nascar Restrictor Plate Exhaust Manifold Design Strategies
… been exhaust manifold diameters and lengths. A response surface analysis of the simulation output followed. The analysis of results shows the design parameters of the existing exhaust manifold are not optimized. The findings from these studies are used to derive exhaust system design guidelines …

A graphical approach for evaluating the potential impact of bias due to model misspecification in response surface designs
The basic purpose of response surface analysis is to generate a relatively simple model to serve as an adequate approximation for a more complex phenomenon. This model then may be used for other purposes, for example prediction or optimization. Since the proposed model is only an approximation, the …

Can't we all just get along? The impact of goal orientation on the coach-athlete relationship and coach-athlete communication
… of interest. Using polynomial regression and response surface analysis, results indicated that goal orientation congruence is an important determinant in both the quality of the coach-athlete relationship and coach-athlete communication. Implications for coaches and athletes based on the …

Interactive Effects of Imazapyr plus Triclopyr Ester and Imazapyr plus Glyphosate Mixtures on Woody Weed Seedlings
… treatments, and were excluded from further analysis. A determination of synergistic or antagonistic interactions was made using response surface analysis, the nonlinear blending method, the isobologram method, and the Colby method. Imazapyr plus triclopyr ester mixtures were found to be …

Paternalistic Leadership and Job Performance: A Chinese Perspective Using Conservation of Resources Theory Approach
… tests in which polynomial regression and response surface analysis were used to test the relationship of the hypotheses. FINDINGS: The results showed that task performance and contextual performance are higher when both authoritarian and benevolent leaders are high than when both …

The Attitudinal and Motivational Consequences of Personality Differences in Teams
… Multilevel polynomial regression with response surface analysis provided no evidence for a congruence pattern relating any of the HEXACO model of personality’s six domains to individual satisfaction with the team, autonomous motivation, or any of the psychological needs. Supplemental …

Probability analysis of slope stability
… a probabilistic model for slope stability analysis. Through Monte Carlo simulation, the distribution of each input parameter is used with traditional behavior equations to produce a probability distribution of the output of the analysis. Allowable risk criterion is then applied to the …

Teleworker Well-Being in COVID-19 as a Function of Change in the Work/Home Boundary: A Multilevel Response Surface Approach
… experience better well-being. Using multilevel response surface analysis (MRSA), which enabled illustration of these complex associations in a more nuanced manner than is possible via either change scores or moderation analyses, I found that maintaining higher work/home integration both before …

Optimising BIPV in High-Rise Buildings in Hot Climates: A Parametric Study and Design Tool
… Orthogonal design and regression-based response surface analysis were used to evaluate seven key parameters: module inclination angle, vertical angle distribution, longitudinal coverage, lateral coverage, panel-to-façade distance, building height, and ambient temperature. The …

Diesel-cng dual fuel combustion characterization using vibro-acoustic analysis and response surface methodology
… of diesel-CNG dual fuel engine using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Two inputs which are CNG substitution rate and engine speed were used to predict the engine output characteristics in terms of engine performance, exhaust emissions, combustion pattern and combustion stability. …

Pea Protein De-flavoring by Ozone
… planned to utilize the Box-Behnken design for response surface analysis. Three factors were included in the design of experiment: ozone concentration, pH of the treatment solution, and reaction time. The optimal operating condition was identified as 100 ppb for ozone concentration, pH10, and …

Graphical assessment of the prediction capability of response surface designs
A response surface analysis is concerned with the exploration of a system in order to determine the behavior of the response of the system as levels of certain factors which influence the response are changed. It is often of particular interest to predict the response in some region of the …
