The New Morris Method: an efficient second-order screening method

The New Morris Method was proposed by Campolongo and Braddock [Reliab. Engng Syst. Saf. 64 (1999) 1] as an extension of the Morris Method [Technometrics 33 (1991) 161] to include estimation of two-factor interaction effects. An undetected programming error prevented Campolongo and Braddock from appreciating the efficacy of the method. Testing on an analytic function reveals that the method is more powerful and efficient than previously thought.
