A Facility Layout Algorithm for Logistics Scenarios Driven by Transport Lines

The layout of facilities in a logistics scenario involves not only the working responsible for processing materials but also transport lines transporting materials. traditional facility methods do take into account transportation nor calculate material handling cost by Manhattan distance, thus failing to fulfill actual requirements industrial scenarios. In this paper, algorithm framework MOSA-FD driven is proposed. A multi-objective simulated annealing (MOSA) designed both (MHC) and (TFC) objectives. Then, force-directed (FD) applied correct unreasonable solutions according workshop, better solution quickly obtained. Finally, comparing results with those other metaheuristic algorithms, acceleration problem demonstrated experimental instances different scales, our method, compared MOSA algorithm, can reach optimal ratios 36% 80%, respectively, on multi-objective.
