Minimal circular strongly balanced neighbor designs control the neighbor effects economically but these designs can only be constructed for v odd. For v even, their alternates are minimal circular strongly balanced generalized neighbor designs of class-I (MCSBGNDs-I) which are the designs in which (i) each treatment appears exactly once with itself as neighbors, (ii) v/2 unordered pairs appear twice as neighbors while the remaining ones appear once. On the basis of constructors developed by Munir et al. (2023), some new generators are developed in this article to generate cyclic shifts for efficient MCSBGNDs-I in blocks of (i) equal sizes, (ii) two different sizes, and (iii) three different sizes for m (mod 4) ≡ 2 & 3 with v even and k = 4l, k = 4l+2, k (odd) > 3, k (mod) ≡ 1 & k (mod) ≡ 3. Efficiency of neighbor effects and of Separability show that our proposed generators produce designs which control the neighbor effects efficiently as well as estimate the direct effects and neighbor effects independently.
