For these experiments, the number of blends needed to fit standard linear models may be too large when considering second- or third-order terms. We present a computationally-tractable algorithm for generating model-robust mixture designs that exploits anticipated effect sparsity by using a set of models defined by a user-specified number of higher-order terms. We compared the model-robust designs with Bayesian-optimal designs, and the model-robust designs show an improved ability to either estimate realistic models or make predictions for mixture experiments.
