Annals of the Institute of Statistical Mathematics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Recently Saha and Das [10] constructed partially balanced incomplete block (PBIB) designs of two and more associate classes by using confounded designs for 2n factorials. Several new designs of two associate classes were obtained through those methods. This paper generalizes one of the earlier methods of construction to obtain several series ofT m -type (m≧2) PBIB designs, i.e., the designs havingm-dimensional triangular association schemes. Some more new designs of two associate classes (i.e.,T 2-type) are obtained through the generalized methods of construction.
