Among commonly used block designs, the class of Latin square designs is used to study factors or treatment levels expressed as Latin letters and applying two blocking factors in rows and columns to simultaneously control two sources of nuisance variability. Another block design in which the error can be controlled by blocking three nuisance factors is obtained by simply using two superimposed Latin square designs, with one using the Latin letters and the other using the Greek letters. Such a design is termed as a Graeco-Latin square (GLS) design. While observing or measuring data in field or lab experiments, it is often noted to have vague, incomplete, and imprecise data for whatsoever reasons. In this regard, researchers have proposed various emerging approaches, which are based on fuzzy, intuitionistic fuzzy, and neutrosophic logic, and provide deeper understanding, analysis, and interpretations of the data. In this paper, we provide a brief review of the history of GLS designs and propose a neutrosophic Graeco-Latin square design, its model, and the analysis. To illustrate this, we have considered an experimental study which analyzes the effects of different formulations of a rocket propellant, which are used in aircrew escape systems, on the observed burning rate.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/axioms13080559","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,16]],"date-time":"2024-08-16T04:29:57Z","timestamp":1723782597000},"page":"559","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Neutrosophic Analysis of Experimental Data Using Neutrosophic Graeco-Latin Square Design"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Pranesh","family":"Kumar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics & Statistics, University of Northern British Columbia, Prince George, BC V2N 4Z9, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mahdieh","family":"Moazzamigodarzi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics & Statistics, University of Northern British Columbia, Prince George, BC V2N 4Z9, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamadtaghi","family":"Rahimi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Iran University of Science and Technology, Tehran 13114-16846, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"85","article-title":"Recherches sur une nouvelle esp\u00e8ce de carr\u00e9s magiques","volume":"9","author":"Euler","year":"1782","journal-title":"Verh.
