摘要

The design parameters of the economic and economic statistical designs of control charts depend on the distribution of process failure mechanism or shock model. So far, only a small number of failure distributions, such as exponential, gamma, and Weibull with fixed or increasing hazard rates, have been used as a shock model in the economic and economic statistical designs of the Hotelling T-2 control charts. Due to both theoretical and practical aspects, the lifetime of the process under study may not follow a distribution with fixed or increasing hazard rate. A proper alternative for this situation may be the Burr distribution, in which the hazard rate can be fixed, increasing, decreasing, single mode, or even U-shaped. In this research article, economic and economic statistical designs of the Hotelling T-2 control charts under the Burr XII shock models under two uniform and non uniform sampling schemes were proposed, constructed, and compared. The obtained design models were implemented by a numerical example, and a sensitivity analysis was conducted to evaluate the effect of changing parameters of shock model distribution on the optimum values of the proposed design models. The results showed that first the proposed designs under non uniform sampling scheme perform better and second the optimum values of the designs are not significantly sensitive to changing of the Burr XII distribution parameters. We showed that the obtained design models are also true for the beta Burr XII shock model.
