For a given in-control average sampling rate and a given false alarm rate, the adaptive chart detects changes in the process much faster than a chart with fixed parameters. Moreover, this study also offers general guidance on how to choose an effective design.567-582engMathematical modelsParameter estimationProcess engineeringSamplingSystems analysisStandard deviationsAdaptive control systemsArtigo10.1080/07408170304427WOS:000183442100009Acesso restrito2-s2.0-00384756406100382011052492
