... The inspection policy is assumed to be zero-defect single sampling. Under this policy a lot is accepted only if no defect has been identified in the inspected sample. The fraction of NC is assumed to be a random variable following a Binomial distribution and the number of NC items detected by inspection assumed...

... in selecting an optimal location that satisfies the overall location requirements. The QFD procedure began by collecting possible candidate location requirements, followed by conducting the first stage of a sampling survey to identify the secondary location requirements. These were then sorted into major...

...Y.I. Kwon Proposes Bayesian life test sampling plan for non‐repairable products with exponential lifetime distribution, which are sold under a warranty policy. It is assumed that the parameter of the lifetime distribution is a random variable varying from lot to lot according to a known prior...

...G.A. Bohoris Summarizes part of the work carried out to date on the two‐sample problem with censored data in the context of reliability and maintenance optimization applications. For this purpose, non‐parametric two‐sample tests for censored data are discussed and their regular usage in common...

...Reay‐Chen Wang; Chung‐Ho Chen Continuous Sampling Plans (CSP) are used where processes are continuous and products are not grouped into lots. The principal design criterion for these plans is the Average Outgoing Quality Limit (AOQL), which is the worst outgoing quality over all possible values...

...Richard L. Luebbe; Byron J. Finch Provides an automatic spreadsheet approach to developing acceptance sampling plans. The technique described allows the user to develop the plan using any needed values for alpha and beta, rather than being limited to those values included in commonly used tables...

...Gauri Shankar Presents a repetitive group sampling plan for three‐attribute classes where items are classified into three categories, namely good, marginal and bad. Derives various performance characteristics of interest to quality control engineers and plan designers through the approach...

...K. Govindaraju; K. Subramani A table and a procedure are given for finding the single‐sampling quick switching system for which the sum of producer′s and consumer′s risks is minimum for specified Acceptable Quality Level and Limiting Quality Level. © MCB UP Limited 1991 CONSUMER’S RISK...

...V. Soundararajan; R. Vijayaraghavan The readily available acceptance number value is revised in the form of three tables. From these tables it is possible to determine single or chain sampling inspection plans when the sample size is fixed. These tables replace the large number of existing tables...

The vendor in this plan will practise process control and forward the results to the receiving department of the buyer. The buyer will exercise a multi‐level skip‐lot sampling plan to accept or reject incoming...

...Neil S. Barnett How to describe, reliably and effectively, the quality of a continuous stream is a problem facing many companies in the chemical industry. The average quality estimated from an average of individual test sample values is most useful if its distribution is known or can be estimated...

...S. Chakraborty; Bapaye Inspection error has been and continues to be an important area of research particularly in statistical quality control. While considerable work has been reported on the effect of inspection error on different sampling plans and the implications thereof, very little seems...

...Elart von Collani; Klaus Meder The most frequently used attribute sampling plan in MIL‐STD 105 D. In cases, however, when the quality level of incoming lots is generally sufficiently good, MIL‐STD 105 D often leads to unnecessarily high sampling cost. This can be avoided by using α‐optimal sampling...
