Abstract
This paper has developed a new robust Shewhart-type control chart for monitoring the location of a bivariate process and examine its behavior based on the Hodges–Lehamnn and Shamos–Bickel–Lehmann estimators. A numerical example is given to illustrate the use of the proposed method. Its performance is investigated using a simulation study.
