Salut,
Considérant votre description du problème et la solution proposée par @statman au point # 5, j'ai créé ce design (script de tableau ci-dessous).J'ai créé une surface de réponse de 32 séquences avec 5 facteurs continus à l'aide de Custom Design, puis j'ai regroupé les séquences en blocs aléatoires de taille 4 (correspondant au nombre de flacons par incubateur et par jour).Dans le tableau, j'ai ajouté manuellement une variable "Jour" et ajusté "incubateur" de sorte que 1-4 se répètent les deux jours.Il serait alors possible de tenir compte de la variation aléatoire en configurant le modèle comme indiqué sur la figure.
Je serais très intéressé de savoir si @statman ou quelqu'un d'autre a une opinion sur cette approche.
