This book was released on 2010 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The single-model assembly line is not efficient for today's competitive industry because to respond the customer's expectation, companies need to produce mixed-model products. On the other hand, using the mixed-model products increases the assembly complexity and makes it difficult to assign tasks to workstations because of the variety in model characteristics. As a result, the mixed-model products suffer from delays, limitations in the line workflow and longer lines. Parallel assembly lines as a production system in ALBPs which consists of a number of assembly lines in a parallel status, which by considering the cycle time of each line certain products are manufactured. This thesis takes advantages of the parallel assembly lines to produce mixed-model in order to assemble more than one model in each parallel assembly line and allocating tasks of models to workstations and balancing each parallel line to reduce the cycle times. To solve these problems, two heuristic algorithms were developed and coded in MATLAB®. The first one allocates each model to only one parallel assembly line and achieves the initial arrangement of tasks with the minimum number of workstations for each line. The second one called Tabu search Mixed-Model Parallel Assembly Line Balancing (TMMPALB), calculates final balancing tasks of different model in parallel lines with optimum cycle time for each line which tasks of each model can be allocated to more than one parallel assembly line through the TMMPALB. The main advantages of employing TS are using a flexible memory structure during the search process, and intensification and diversification strategies, which help to make a comprehensive search in the solution space. Fourteen data sets create 81 test problems that were solved to validate the performance of the TMMPALB. Each test problem consisted of the number of tasks, process time for each task (time unit), and the precedence relationship, minimum number of station and cycle time for each model. By considering that 80 out of the 81 test problems include three models and the remaining one has four models, 244 cycle times is made, which TMMPALB tries to minimize. The computational results showed that 205 cycle times out of the 244 cycle times have been improved. These results demonstrated that by arranging mixed-model through the parallel assembly lines with minimum number of workstations, the minimum cycle times are achieved in comparing with the single line.

Book Synopsis Balancing and Sequencing of Assembly Lines by : Armin Scholl
Download or read book Balancing and Sequencing of Assembly Lines written by Armin Scholl and published by Physica. This book was released on 1999-02-26 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book deals with two main decision problems which arise when flow-line production systems are installed and operated. The assembly line balancing problem consists of partitioning the work, necessary to assemble the product(s), among different stations of an assembly line. If several models of a product are jointly processed on a line, this medium-term problem is connected with the short-term problem of determining an operating sequence of the models. In Part I balancing and sequencing problems are discussed, classified, and arranged within a hierarchical planning system. In the present second edition special emphasis is given to u-shaped assembly lines which are important components of modern just-in-time production systems. Part II is concerned with exact and heuristic procedures for solving those decision problems. For each problem type considered, a survey of existing procedures is given and new efficient solution methods are developed. Comprehensive numerical investigations showing the effectiveness of the new methods and their superiority over existing approaches are reported.

Book Synopsis Matheuristics by : Vittorio Maniezzo
Download or read book Matheuristics written by Vittorio Maniezzo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-09-18 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metaheuristics support managers in decision-making with robust tools that provide high-quality solutions to important applications in business, engineering, economics, and science in reasonable time frames, but finding exact solutions in these applications still poses a real challenge. However, because of advances in the fields of mathematical optimization and metaheuristics, major efforts have been made on their interface regarding efficient hybridization. This edited book will provide a survey of the state of the art in this field by providing some invited reviews by well-known specialists as well as refereed papers from the second Matheuristics workshop to be held in Bertinoro, Italy, June 2008. Papers will explore mathematical programming techniques in metaheuristics frameworks, and especially focus on the latest developments in Mixed Integer Programming in solving real-world problems.
Book Synopsis Assembly Line Balancing under Uncertain Task Time and Demand Volatility by : Yuchen Li
Download or read book Assembly Line Balancing under Uncertain Task Time and Demand Volatility written by Yuchen Li and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-10 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces several mathematical models in assembly line balancing based on stochastic programming and develops exact and heuristic methods to solve them. An assembly line system is a manufacturing process in which parts are added in sequence from workstation to workstation until the final assembly is produced. In an assembly line balancing problem, tasks belonging to different product models are allocated to workstations according to their processing times and precedence relationships among tasks. It incorporates two features, uncertain task times, and demand volatility, separately and simultaneously, into the conventional assembly line balancing model. A real-life case study related to the mask production during the COVID-19 pandemic is presented to illustrate the application of the proposed framework and methodology. The book is intended for graduate students who are interested in combinatorial optimizations in manufacturing with uncertain input.
Book Synopsis A combined simulation heuristic approach to optimize a single-product straight assembly line by : Salem F. Lakrash

This book was released on 2021 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dissertation, a single straight assembly line only for one type of product is addressed based on a real production environment. This research aims to optimize the performance of the assembly line in such a way as to minimize the number of workstations by developing a combined simulation heuristic methodology for line balancing of a single-product straight assembly line. Three months of data were collected, which is relevant to cycle time, repair station time and downtime (MTBF and MTTR), reject percentage (percentage success after the first repair, percentage success after the second repair, percentage unrepairable resulting in complete scrap out) and actual hourly throughput. Simulation models were built to mimic the existing production scenario to investigate and evaluate the assembly line's dynamic behavior under various conditions and to predict the future behavior of the system. Moreover, the Design of Experiments (DOE) was conducted to identify the problematic areas, and a regression model was built for the data set. Rockwell ARENA software, MINITAB 17 software, and MATLAB software were utilized simultaneously to proceed with the simulation processes and design of experiments. Besides, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was used to specify the main effects of changes on the throughput performance measures, along with linear regression to examine the relationships among output measures. In this research, a Genetic Algorithm (GA) model was developed to solve a single straight assembly line balancing problem. The proposed GA uses a hybrid method to generate the initial population and applies modified crossover and mutation operators. The proposed way of producing the initial population can increase the diversity of the population. A new method of selection was utilized to balance selective pressure and a repair strategy was used to overcome gene duplication. The fitness function was developed and consists of three terms. The first term addresses and evaluates the feasibility of the solutions; the second term of the fitness function monitors the progressive loading, and the third term fulfills the front-loading concept. The developed GA can find the optimum or near optimum solution for SALBP.
