Simulation-Assisted Design of Experiments

Simulation-assisted design of experiments (SA-DoE) integrates computational simulation tools — such as finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), or discrete-event simulation — with classical DoE principles to systematically explore the factor space of a system. Rather than running costly or hazardous physical trials, researchers execute a structured set of virtual experiments across selected factor combinations, then fit a surrogate model to the simulation outputs to understand main effects, interactions, and optimal settings.
