INDUSTRIAL STATISTICS (2WS02)

This course aims at giving a broad introduction to statistical techniques used in industry.
The main topics are
Design of Experiments
Factorial designs (in blocks; fractional) for factors at 2 levels and at 3 levels.
Response Surface Methods and other approaches to process optimization.
General theory of optimal experiments, in particular D-optimality (including algorithms).
Statistical Process Control
Historical development of quality control.
Basic acceptance sampling schemes.
Measurement analysis (Gauge R & R).
Capability analysis: capability indices, testing for capability, Six Sigma metrics.
Control charts: Shewhart control charts for grouped and individual data, CUSUM
and EWMA control charts, control charts for attribute data, control charts for
specific situations (correlated data (in particular time series models), tool-wear
charts.
