Resumo: 
"This seminar is intended for students and scientists who want to enrich their knowledge concerning statistical methods such as Design of Experiment (DoE), multivariate analysis and multi-response optimization. Such an efficient mathematical strategy in a field of material science is outlined in this presentation as a combination of an experimental work, modeling and information extraction from massive computational data. This approach significantly reduces the number of experiments to be realized, while still maintaining a high accuracy of the analysis. By carrying out a finite number of experiments and the empirical modeling one can predict properties of a studied material system and perform its optimization in order to get highest possible performance within given physical constrains. 
The presentation is broken down into two main parts. First one covers selected theoretical aspects of presented approach containing information on how to perform controlled statistical tests to evaluate the factors that are affecting a response variable. Second part presents specific case-studies concerning three different topics: statistical mixture design and multivariate analysis of (I) inkjet printed electrochromic films and (II) thermosetting composite solid-state electrolyte; (III) mixing performance of passive rhombic micromixer with stepped diamond-shaped obstacles."
