چکیده

A few years ago, I was provided data on Hallsville ISD’s Texas Assessment of Academic Skills (TAAS) test results by Dr. Elizabeth Clark, Assistant Superintendent for Educational Operations. Elizabeth requested that I use statistical process control (SPC) charts to analyze the test scores and then submit recommendations for improvement. The reading and math charts are shown on Figures A and B, respectively, and the following comments are offered as a supplement to the data, control limits and patterns illustrated on the charts.

Process capability improvement of an engine connecting rod machining process

Statistical process control is an excellent quality assurance tool to improve the quality of manufacture and ultimately scores on end-customer satisfaction. SPC uses process monitoring charts to record the key quality characteristics (KQCs) of the component in manufacture. This paper elaborates on one such KQC of the manufacturing of a connecting rod of an internal combustion engine. Here th...

Application of Multivariate Control Charts for Condition Based Maintenance

Condition monitoring is the foundation of a condition based maintenance (CBM). To relate the information obtained from the condition monitoring to the actual state of the system, it is usually required a stochastic model. On the other hand, considering the interactions and similarities that exist between CBM and statistical process control (SPC), the integrated models for CBM and SPC have been ...

A DMAIC approach for process capability improvement an engine crankshaft manufacturing process

The define–measure–analyze–improve–control (DMAIC) approach is a five-strata approach, namely DMAIC. This approach is the scientific approach for reducing the deviations and improving the capability levels of the manufacturing processes. The present work elaborates on DMAIC approach applied in reducing the process variations of the stub-end-hole boring operation of the manufacture of cra...

Fuzzy rules for fuzzy $overline{X}$ and $R$ control charts

Statistical process control ($SPC$), an internationally recognized technique for improving product quality and productivity, has been widely employed in various industries. $SPC$ relies on the use of control charts to monitor a manufacturing process for identifying causes of process variation and signaling the necessity of corrective action for the process. Fuzzy data exist ubiquitously in the ...

تحلیل الگوهای همزمان در نمودارهای کنترل فرآیند آماری با استفاده از شبکه عصبی

  Statistical Process Control (SPC) charts play a major role in quality control systems, and their correct interpretation leads to discovering probable irregularities and errors of the production system. In this regard, various artificial neural networks have been developed to identify mainly singular patterns of SPC charts, while having drawbacks in handling multiple concurrent patterns. In th...
