A New S2-EWMA Control Chart for Monitoring the Process Variance
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article demonstrates how a three-parameter logarithmic transformation combined with an exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) approach can be used to monitor the sample variance of a process. The computation of the parameters of the logarithmic transformation and the control limits are explained. An easy-to-use table is provided and an illustrative example is given. The performance of the logarithmic transformation is evaluated under the assumption of normality. An optimal design strategy based on the ARL is presented and comparisons with other procedures are performed. Copyright c © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A Study on the S 2 - EWMA Chart for Monitoring the Process Variance based on the MRL Performance (
The existing optimal design of the fixed sampling interval S2-EWMA control chart to monitor the sample variance of a process is based on the average run length (ARL) criterion. Since the shape of the run length distribution changes with the magnitude of the shift in the variance, the median run length (MRL) gives a more meaningful explanation about the in-control and out-of-control performances...
متن کاملMonitoring Fuzzy Capability Index $widetilde{C}_{pk}$ by Using the EWMA Control Chart with Imprecise Data
A manufacturing process cannot be released to production until it has been proven to be stable. Also, we cannot begin to talk about process capability until we have demonstrated stability in our process. This means that the process variation is the result of random causes only and all assignable or special causes have been removed. In complicated manufacturing processes, such as drilling proces...
متن کاملA Simple Approach for Monitoring Business Service Time Variation
Control charts are effective tools for signal detection in both manufacturing processes and service processes. Much of the data in service industries comes from processes having nonnormal or unknown distributions. The commonly used Shewhart variable control charts, which depend heavily on the normality assumption, are not appropriately used here. In this paper, we propose a new asymmetric EWMA ...
متن کاملA Review and Evaluation of Statistical Process Control Methods in Monitoring Process Mean and Variance Simultaneously
In this paper, first the available single charting methods, which have been proposed to detect simultaneous shifts in a single process mean and variance, are reviewed. Then, by designing proper simulation studies these methods are evaluated in terms of in-control and out-ofcontrol average run length criteria (ARL). The results of these simulation experiments show that the EWMA and EWMS methods ...
متن کاملMonitoring Lognormal Reliability Data in a Two-Stage Process Using Accelerated Failure Time Model
The reliability data is getting used to monitor and improve the quality of products or services. Nowadays, most of products or services are the results of processes with dependent stages referred to as multi-stage process. In these processes, the quality characteristics are affected by the quality characteristics in the previous stages, called as cascade property. In some cases, it is not possi...
