Multivariate control charts for monitoring mean vector of several related quality variables with combine-accumulate approach and accumulate-combine apprach were investigated. Shewhart chart is also proposed to compare the performances of CUSUM and EWMA charts. Numerical comparisons show that CUSUM and EWMA charts are more efficient than Shewhart chart for small or moderate shifts, and multivariate charts based on accumulate- combine approach is more efficient than corresponding multivariate charts based on combine-accumulate approach.

Multivariate quality control charts with combine-accumulate approach and accumulate-combine apprach for monitoring both means and variances under multivariate normal process are investigated. Numerical performances of the charts show that multivariate EWMA chart with accumulate-combine approach can be recommended for all kinds of shift in means and variances.

In this paper, we proposed multivariate EWMA control charts for both combine-accumulate and accumulate-combine approaches to monitor dispersion matrix of multiple quality variables. Numerical performance of the proposed charts are evaluated in terms of average run length(ARL). The performances show that small smoothing constants with accumulate-combine approach is preferred for detecting small shifts of the production process.

Multivariate exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control charts for monitoring the variance-covariance matrix are investigated. Two basic approaches, "combine-accumulate" approach and "accumulate-combine" approach, for using past sample information in the developement of multivariate EWMA control charts are considered. Multivariate EWMA control charts for monitoring the variance-covariance matrix are compared on the basis of their average run length (ARL) performances. The numerical results show that multivariate EWMA control charts based on the accumulate-combine approach are more efficient than corresponding multivariate EWMA control charts based on the combine-accumulate approach.

Performances of variable sampling interval(VSI) multivariate control charts with accumulate-combine approach for monitoring mean vector of p related quality variables were investigated. Shewhart control chart is also proposed to compare the performances of CUSUM and EWMA charts. Numerical comparisons show that performances of CUSUM and EWMA charts are more efficient than Shewhart chart for small or moderate shifts, and VSI chart is more efficient than fixed sampling interval(FSI) chart. We also found that performances of the CUSUM or EWMA chart with accumulate-combine approach are substantially efficient than those of Shewhart chart.

Multivariate control statistics to simultaneously monitor both means and variances for several quality variables under multivariate normal process are proposed. Performances of the proposed multivariate charts are evaluated in terms of average run length(ARL). Multivariate Shewhart chart is also proposed to compare the performances of multivariate exponentially weighted moving average(EWMA) charts. A numerical comparison shows that multivariate EWMA charts are more efficient than multivariate Shewhart chart for small and moderate shifts and multivariate EWMA scheme based on accumulate-combine approach is more efficient than corresponding multivariate EWMA chart based on combine-accumulate approach.

Multivariate EWMA control charts to simultaneously monitor correlation coefficients of correlated quality characteristics under multivariate normal process are proposed. Performances of the proposed charts are measured in terms of average run length(ARL). Numerical results show that smalle values for smoothing constant with accumulate-combine approach are preferred for detecting smalle shifts.

Theoretical and numerical comparison have shown that variable sampling interval (VSI) charts are substantially more efficient than fixed sampling interval(FSI) charts in term of ATS(average time to signal). But the frequency of switching between different sampling intervals is a complicating factor in VSI procedures. VSI EWMA charts for monitoring mean vector of related qualify characteristics are investigated. To compare the efficiencies of the proposed charts, the performances are evaluated for matched FSI and VSI charts in terms of average time to signal(ATS) and average number of samples to signal(ANSS). For the switching behavior of the proposed VSI charts, average number of switches(ANSW) are also investigated.

There are many researches showing that when a process change has occurred, variable sampling intervals (VSI) control chart is better than the fixed sampling interval (FSI) control chart in terms of reducing the required time to signal. When the process engineers use VSI control procedure, frequent switching between different sampling intervals can be a complicating factor. However, average number of samples to signal (ANSS), which is the amount of required samples to signal, and average time to signal (ATS) do not provide any control statistics about switching performances of VSI charts. In this study, we evaluate numerical switching performances of multivariate VSI EWMA chart including average number of switches to signal (ANSW) and average switching rate (ASWR). In addition, numerical study has been carried out to examine how to improve the performance of considered chart with accumulate-combine approach under several different smoothing constant and sample size. In conclusion, process engineers, who want to manage the correlation coefficients of related quality variables, are recommended to make sample size as large and smoothing constant as small as possible under permission of process conditions.
