IIE Transactions archives from April 2006
A review on design, modeling and applications of computer experiments.
April 1, 2006... 1. Introduction
In the design of complex systems, computer experiments are frequently the only practical approach to obtaining a solution. Typically, a simulation model of system performance is constructed based on knowledge of how the...
A self-starting procedure for monitoring process quality in multistage manufacturing systems.
April 1, 2006... 1. Introduction
Manufacturing systems typically contain processing and assembly stages whose output quality is affected by the output quality of preceding stages. Conventional statistical process control procedures, however, do not...
A survey of inspection strategy and sensor distribution studies in discrete-part manufacturing processes.
April 1, 2006... 1. Introduction
Producing high-quality products is a crucial factor in an enterprise maintaining its global competitiveness. Operations managers tend to view quality as being the fraction of products that are made right the first time in...
An extended linear hazard regression model with application to time-dependent dielectric breakdown of thermal oxides.
April 1, 2006... 1. Introduction
The intensity of the global competition to develop new products with a high reliability and high overall quality has motivated the development of new approaches such as robust design, just-in-time manufacturing, and design...
Signature construction and matching for fault diagnosis in manufacturing processes through fault space analysis.
April 1, 2006... 1. Introduction
Statistical process control (SPC) (Montgomery and Woodall, 1997) is a popular technique used in practice for quality improvement. However, SPC possesses limited diagnosis capabilities to identify the variation sources after...
Error cancellation modeling and its application to machining process control.
April 1, 2006... 1. Introduction
In a machining process, product quality is mainly affected by fixture, datum, and machine tool errors. A fixture is a device used to locate, clamp, and support a workpiece during machining, assembly, or inspection. A...
Age-based hybrid model for imperfect preventive maintenance.
April 1, 2006... 1. Introduction
Maintenance systems are responsible for keeping equipment and assets fit, safe to operate and suitably configured to perform their tasks. Therefore, maintenance has a major impact on delivery, quality and cost. If...
Monitoring the process mean and variance using a weighted loss function CUSUM scheme with variable sampling intervals.(CUmulative SUM )
April 1, 2006... 1. Introduction
In statistical process control, when dealing with a quality characteristic x that is a variable, it is usually necessary to monitor both the mean value [mu] of the quality characteristic and its variance [[sigma].sup.2] (Wu...
