Response Surface
A response surface is a visual or mathematical way to understand how different input variables affect an outcome or result. Imagine you’re adjusting several factors—like temperature, pressure, or material quality—and want to see how they influence a product’s performance. The response surface helps identify the combinations that lead to the best results, often shown as a 3D landscape or a mathematical model. This tool is widely used in engineering and research to optimize processes efficiently by exploring how variables interact and impact results.
