Process shift is an important input parameter in the economic design of control charts. Earlier x control chart designs considered constant shifts to occur in the mean of the process for a given assignable cause. This assumption has been criticized by many researchers since it may not be realistic to produce a constant shift whenever an assignable cause occurs. To overcome this difficulty...

Control charts are used to identify the presence of assignable cause of variation in the process. Non-parametric control chart is an emerging area of recent development in the theory of SPC. Its main advantage is that it does not require any knowledge about the underlying distribution of the variable. In this paper a non-parametric control chart for controlling variability has been developed. I...

C-control chart assumes that process nonconformities follow a Poisson distribution. In actuality, however, this Poisson distribution does not always occur. A process control for semiconductor based on a Poisson distribution always underestimates the true average amount of nonconformities and the process variance. Quality is described more accurately if a compound Poisson process is used for pro...

abstract. in recent years several studies have shown that  control charts with adaptive schemes or double sampling plans detect both small and moderate shifts in the process mean more quickly than the traditional shewhart  chart. in the classical double sampling  chart, the difference between two points were placed in the central region of first stage was not considered. in this study, a new co...

multivariate control charts such as hotelling`s t^ 2 and x^ 2 are commonly used for monitoring several related quality characteristics. these control charts use correlation structure that exists between quality characteristics in an attempt to improve monitoring. the purpose of this article is to discuss some issues related to the g chart proposed by levinson et al. [9] for detecting shifts in ...

although control charts are very common to monitoring process changes, they usually do not indicate the real time of the changes. identifying the real time of the process changes is known as change-point estimation problem. there are a number of change point models in the literature however most of the existing approaches are dedicated to normal processes. in this paper we propose a novel appro...

Ghute Dept. of Statistics, Solapur University, Solapur, (MS), India [email protected]; +91 9881372729 ______________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract Nonparametric or distribution-free control chart is useful in statistical process control when the underlying process distribution is unknown or is not likely to be normal. In...

a new method is developed for a fast identification of the stability situation of industrial processes. the proposed method includes two factor ratios of the control constants for the upper and lower control limits to process these constants. an indication ratio is then defined as the ratio of the maximum data range value to the difference between the maximum and average values for individual d...
