J. Econ.Entomol.89(6): 1468-1476 (1996) ABSTRACT Sequential sampling plans were developed for use in recommending control of European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis (Hiibner), in potato, Solanum tuberosum L., fields based on the distribution of damaged stems. Likelihood ratio tests indicated that the betabinomial distribution (aggregated) provided a better fit than the binomial (random) when th...

A control chart is an important tool in statistical process monitoring that useful to monitor and improve production quality. In this article, attribute using repetitive sampling under a truncated life test proposed for the mean of product where lifetime follows Rayleigh distribution. The parameters limit coefficients are determined so in-control average run length (ARL) very close target ARL. ...

Due to the n-pulse commutation, power harmonic distortions caused by inverters usually concentrate on particular (nk±m)-order frequencies. The conventional repetitive control (RC) uses an identical gain equally compensate for at all This leads slow dynamics as it fails optimize convergence rate of RC dominant selective (SHRC) can efficiently suppress distortions. However, ratio sampling SHRC fu...
