6. The np chart proposed by Hu and Jiao to control a wandering mean Univariate Case (3)

7. When the process mean wanders, a simple way to study the chart’s performance is building a Markov chain that allows us to express the ARL as a function of the expected number the transient states are visited. (6) (7)

12. Assumptions: X 1 and X 2 follow a Normal distribution with in-control mean values, and covariance matrix  The assignable cause shifts the mean vector  to without changing 

13. First proposed attribute chart is the np a chart, its monitoring statistic is A: the number of sample units with a second or a third-class classification The np a chart with Upper Control Limit- UCL=m signals when A>m

15. The second proposed attribute chart is the np b chart, its monitoring statistic is B=B1+2*B2, being B1 (B2) the number of sample units with a second (third)-class classification. The np b chart with Upper Control Limit- UCL=m signals when B>m
