Finite horizon planning with fixed-interval deliveries and no shortage

Finite horizon planning with fixed-interval deliveries and no shortage http://repository.uhamka.ac.id/1629/ The ordering policy of raw materials and the manufacturing batch size for frequent deliveries of finished goods over a finite horizon play a significant role in managing the supply chain logistics economically. This research develops an ordering policy for raw materials and determines an economic… Continue reading Finite horizon planning with fixed-interval deliveries and no shortage

Flow distance reduction for a multi-product flowline with sets of identical machines

Flow distance reduction for a multi-product flowline with sets of identical machines http://repository.uhamka.ac.id/1628/ A group of M machines for processing a set of jobs in a manufacturing system is often located in a serial line. An efficient strategy for locating these machines is desired such that the total travel distance or the cost of transporting… Continue reading Flow distance reduction for a multi-product flowline with sets of identical machines

Machine assignment in a nonlinear multi-product flowline

Machine assignment in a nonlinear multi-product flowline http://repository.uhamka.ac.id/1627/ A group of machines for processing a set of jobs in a manufacturing system is often located in a serial line. An efficient strategy for locating these machines such that the total travel distance or the cost of transporting the jobs is minimized is desired. In this… Continue reading Machine assignment in a nonlinear multi-product flowline

Operations policy for a supply chain system with fixed-interval delivery and linear demand

Operations policy for a supply chain system with fixed-interval delivery and linear demand http://repository.uhamka.ac.id/1624/ This research addresses a production-supply problem for a supply-chain system with fixed-interval delivery. A strategy that determines the optimal batch sizes, cycle times, numbers of orders of raw materials, and production start times is prescribed to minimize the total costs for… Continue reading Operations policy for a supply chain system with fixed-interval delivery and linear demand
