Calculations for the gap distribution (short-term statistics) for Calculate Gap Pools

For corresponding calculations for long-term statistics, go to Calculations for the gap distribution (long-term statistics) for Calculate Gap Pools.

μGap,ST

Short-term gap mean before allocation

σGap,ST

Short-term gap standard deviation before allocation

Z.LSL(ST)

If only lower specification in the assembly gap is given:
Z.LSL(ST) = (T – LSL) / σGap,ST
If only upper specification in the assembly gap is given:
Z.LSL(ST) = '*'
If neither lower nor upper specification in the assembly gap:
Z.LSL(ST) = T / σGap,ST

Z.USL(ST)

If only upper specification in the assembly gap is given:
Z.USL(ST) = (USL – T) / σGap,ST
Otherwise
Z.USL(ST) = '*'

Z.BenchGap,ST

If neither lower nor upper specification in the assembly gap:
Z.BenchGap,ST = Φ-1(Φ(Z.USL(ST)) – Φ(–Z.LSL(ST)))
If only upper specification in the assembly gap is given:
Z.BenchGap,ST = Z.USL(ST)
Otherwise
Z.BenchGap,ST = Z.LSL(ST)
