Abstract
We describe a method for finding mixed orthogonal arrays of strength 2 with a large number of 2-level factors. The method starts with an orthogonal array of strength 2, possibly tight, that contains mostly 2-level factors. By a computer search of this starting array, we attempt to find as large a number of 2-level factors as possible that can be used in a new orthogonal array of strength 2 containing one additional factor at more than two levels. The method produces new orthogonal arrays for some parameters, and matches the best-known arrays for others. It is especially useful for finding arrays with one or two factors at more than two levels.
