NESTED BALANCED N-ARY DESIGNS AND THEIR PB ARRAYS
Keywords:
Balanced Incomplete Block Designs, Balanced Ternary Design, Nested Balanced N-Ary Designs, PB Arrays, Strength.Abstract
This paper is concerned with the construction of nested balanced quaternary design (NBQD) through a set of BIBD & balanced ternary design ( BTD) along with n-ary designs and their PB arrays considering a set of (n-1) balanced incomplete block designs. Two applications in relation to intercropping designs through PB arrays have also been added.
