    In process control, cumulative sum (CUSUM), exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA), and synthetic control charts are developed to detect small and moderate shifts. Small shifts which are hard to detect can be costly to the process control if left undetected for a long period. These control charts are not reliable under non-normality as the design structure of the charts is based on the sample mean. Sample mean is sensitive to outliers, a common cause of non-normality. In circumventing the problem, this study applied robust location estimators in the design structure of the control charts, instead of the sample mean. For such purpose, four robust estimators namely 20%-trimmed mean, median, modified one-step M-estimator (MOM), and winsorized MOM (WMOM) were chosen. The proposed charts were tested on several conditions which include sample sizes, shift sizes, and different types of non-normal distributions represented by the g-and-h distribution. Random variates for each distribution were obtained using SAS RANNOR before transforming them to the desired type of distribution. Robustness and detection ability of the charts were gauged through average run length (ARL) via simulation study. Validation of the charts’ performance which was done through real data study, specifically on potential diabetic patients at Universiti Utara Malaysia shows that robust EWMA chart and robust CUSUM chart outperform the standard charts. The findings concur with the results of simulation study. Even though robust synthetic chart is not among the best choice as it cannot detect small shifts as quickly as CUSUM or EWMA, its performance is much better than the standard chart under non-normality. This study reveals that all the proposed robust charts fare better than the standard charts under non-normality, and comparable with the latter under normality. The most robust among the investigated charts are EWMA control charts based on MOM and WMOM. These robust charts can fast detect small shifts regardless of distributional shapes and work well under small sample sizes. These characteristics suit the industrial needs in process monitoring

    Life in the nation and state requires constant discussion about the breadth of a scientific study of national insight in Indonesia. The principles of Pancasila serve as a link to foster national consciousness. With globalization, Indonesia's state ideology and Pancasila as the nation's way of life are losing their value and being replaced by foreign cultures. This article discusses how the benefits of social science learning to increase nationalistic insight in elementary school students. The focus of the research is the practical implementation of social science lessons in expanding the nationalistic insight of an elementary school student. The purpose of this research is to measure how well various educational approaches can improve students' understanding of progress. The research shows that teachers can implement nationalistic insights sourced from social science subjects through two approaches with Contextual Teaching Model (CTL) learning methods and also practical methods such as Indonesian history art performances, Indonesian history exhibitions and others. Effective learning can improve students' understanding of the development of Indonesian independence and strengthen students' nationalism

    The Effect of Median Based Estimators on CUSUM Chart

    Get PDF
    Cumulative Sum (CUSUM) chart has been used extensively to monitor mean shifts.It is highly sought after by practitioners and researchers in many areas of quality control due to its sensitivity in detecting small to moderate shifts. Normality assumption governs its ability to monitor the process mean. When the assumption is violated, CUSUM chart typically loses its practical use. As normality is hard to achieve in practice, the usual CUSUM chart is often substituted with robust charts.This is to provide more accurate results under slight deviation from normality. Thus, in this paper, we investigate the impact of using robust location estimators, namely, median and Hodges-Lehmann on CUSUM performance. By pairing the location estimators with a robust scale estimator known as median absolute deviation about the median (MADn), a duo median based CUSUM chart is attained.The performances of both charts are studied under normality and contaminated normal distribution and evaluated using the average run length (ARL). While demonstrating an average power to detect the out-of-control situations, the in-control performances of both charts remain unaffected in the presence of outliers. This could very well be advantageous when the proposed charts are tested on a real data set in the future. A case in point is when the statistical tool is used to monitor changes in clinical variables for the health care outcomes.By minimising the false positives, a sound judgement can be made for any clinical decision

    Numerical Study of Ducted Turbines in Shallow Water Environment

    The development of tidal turbines, particularly for shallow water applications, is still in its early stages. Vertical axis tidal turbines (VATT) are often preferred for shallow water due to the bidirectional nature of tidal currents. Implementing a channelling system around a tidal turbine can significantly stabilise the flow field, increase the current velocity, and enhance the energy efficiency of the turbine. However, there has been limited exploration of using channelling techniques to improve the performance of VATTs in turbid areas. This study employs a numerical analysis using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to investigate VATTs. The VATT model is represented by a cylindrical object with a diameter and height of 5 meters. The simulation focuses on the wake characteristics and the design of turbine arrays. The Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations are utilised as flow viscous solvers in ANSYS Fluent, and the effectiveness of the ducts in energy conversion is calculated using the realizable two-layer  turbulence model. The primary objective of this study is to examine the impact of converging devices on tidal turbine performance and propose an optimal design for shallow water applications. The proposed ducted design shows an increase in current speed passing through the device by 11.1%. Although the wake generated by the multi-row staggered array layout disperses the flow to the side of the domain, the model demonstrates a 0.9% improvement in velocity magnitude. Conversely, the results for the single-row inline layout indicate the most favorable arrangement for shallow water applications, with a 19.4% increase in velocity magnitude and a shorter wake generation
