Simultaneous optimization of mechanical properties of steel by maximizing exponential desirability functions, by K.-J. Kim and D. K. J. Lin,
Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series C, Applied Statistics, Volume 49 (2000), Part 3

LAYOUT OF THE DATA:

Column 1 (x1) = percent of carbon (%)
Column 2 (x2) = percent of manganese (%)
Column 3 (x3) = percent of silicon (%)
Column 4 (x4) = thickness of strips/plates (mm)
Column 5 (x5) = milling temperature (degrees centigrade)
Column 6 (x6) = coiling temperature (degrees centigrade)
Column 7 (y1) = tensile strength (kg/mm2)
Column 8 (y2) = yield strength (kg/mm2)
Column 9 (y3) = elongation (%)

Each row corresponds to one data point. There are seventy four data points in total.
