Abstract

Maximum exponentially weighted moving average (MaxEWMA) control charts have attracted substantial interest because of their ability to simultaneously detect increases and decreases in both the process mean and the process variability. In this paper, we propose new MaxEWMA control charts based on ordered double ranked set sampling (ODRSS) and ordered imperfect double ranked set sampling (OIDRSS) schemes, named MaxEWMA‐ODRSS and MaxEWMA‐OIDRSS control charts, respectively. The proposed MaxEWMA control charts are based on the best linear unbiased estimators obtained under ODRSS and OIDRSS schemes. Extensive Monte Carlo simulations are used to estimate the average run length and standard deviation of the run length of the proposed MaxEWMA control charts. The run length performances and the diagnostic abilities of the proposed MaxEWMA control charts are compared with that of their counterparts based on simple random sampling (SRS), ordered ranked set sampling (ORSS) and ordered imperfect ranked set sampling schemes (OIRSS) schemes, that is, MaxEWMA‐SRS, maximum generally weighted moving average (MaxGWMA‐SRS), MaxEWMA‐ORSS and MaxEWMA‐OIRSS control charts. It turns out that the proposed MaxEWMA‐ODRSS and MaxEWMA‐OIDRSS control charts perform uniformly better than the MaxEWMA‐SRS, MaxGWMA‐SRS, MaxEWMA‐ORSS and MaxEWMA‐OIRSS control charts in simultaneous detection of shifts in the process mean and variability. An application to real data is also provided to illustrate the implementations of the proposed and existing MaxEWMA control charts. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
