Abstract

Shewhart’s control charts are used when you have enough and exact observed data. In case of incomplete and vague data, they can be still used by the help of the fuzzy set theory. In this chapter, we develop the fuzzy control charts for variables, which are namely X̄ and R and X̄ and S charts. Triangular fuzzy numbers have been used in the development of these charts. Unnatural patterns have been examined under fuzziness. Besides, fuzzy EWMA charts have been also developed in this chapter. For each fuzzy case, we present a numerical example.
