Ability to formulate research methodology incorporating clear

fundamentals, theories and benchmarked against standard

practices governing the research project.



INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION

• Now you are actually talking about what you are proposing. Again, be sure that this follows naturally from the Introduction in which you should have set up and highlighted some critical issue that needs to be resolved. What you should do now is to tell the reader how you would resolve this issue.



PURPOSEPURPOSE

• This section will provides a written description of the specific actions, plan, or strategy you will take to answer your research questions.



METHODOLOGY

• HOW YOU INVESTIGATE THE QUESTION?

• WHAT WILL YOU DO?

• HOW YOU WILL DO IT?



BASIC PRINCIPLE OF EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN



BASIC CONCEPT



CONTENTSCONTENTS

• This section should describe the proposed method for the experiment, including – List of Equipments and Materials that will be

used (details descriptions)

– Procedure that will be followed (details descriptions)

– Research Framework (Overall Research Work)



APPARATUS AND APPARATUS AND INSTRUMENTSINSTRUMENTS

• In this subsection of the method section you describe any apparatus and or instruments you propose to use in your research study.

• The following information should be included:• General description of the apparatus or instruments.• Variables measured by instruments.• Reliability and validity of instruments.• Why the instruments or apparatus are used.• Reference indicating where apparatus or instruments

can be obtained.



PROCEDUREPROCEDURE

• In this subsection of the method section of your proposal, you carefully describe how your study will be executed.

• The following information should be included in the procedure section:• A description of the design if it was not previously

described.• A detailed step-by-step description of how the study

will be executed.



PROCEDUREPROCEDURESteps: list down all scopes with details description

-material/sample preparation, design work, simulation/modelling work, development or fabrication work, characterization and optimization

-should specify the variables/parameters (independent and dependent) that will be used in the experiment with the min and max range that will be run by DOE

-Determine how many of replicate / control
