KEYWORDS In many manufacturing processes, the quality of a product is characterized by a non-linear relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. Using nonlinear regression for monitoring nonlinear profiles have been proposed in the literature of profile monitoring which is faced with two problems; 1) the distribution of regression coefficients in small sample...

In this work, the melting process of compounds containing nanoparticles of NePCM in a square hole with different angles affected by two pairs of well-spring heat source on horizontal walls was numerically investigated. Four different configurations of elements were employed to investigate the effect of changes in the position of elements on the horizontal walls of the well-spring landscape on t...

Complex processes in modern manufacturing and business environments can generate hundreds and even thousands of process measurements that vary over time. Early detection of process instability is critical for avoiding costly failures and minimizing risk. When the process measurements are correlated, multivariate statistical process monitoring methods are appropriate. Three new procedures in SAS...

Hematological profiles of cyclists fluctuates are based on the volume/frequency/intensity of training. The present study examined the effects of training load on the cyclist’s biochemical profile which may be associated with over training. Twelve male cyclists volunteered to participate in this study. The participants completed a systematic training program which was divided into four phases i....
