Manufacturing processes are often based on more than one quality characteristic. When these variables are correlated the process capability analysis should be performed using multivariate statistical methodologies. Although there is a growing interest in methods for evaluating the capability of...

In manufacturing industry there is growing interest in measures of process capability under multivariate setting. While there are many statistical packages to assess univariate capability, a current problem with the multivariate measures of capability is the shortage of user friendly software....

Monitoring algorithms, such as the Shewhart and Cusum control charts, are often used for monitoring purposes in the chemical industry or within an environmental context. The statistical properties of these algorithms are known to be highly responsive to measurement errors. Recent studies have...
