An Efficient Algorithm to Solve Utilization-based Model for Cellular Manufacturing Systems
The design of cellular manufacturing system (CMS) involves many structural and operational issues. One of the important CMS design steps is the formation of part families and machine cells which is called cell formation. In this paper, we propose an efficient algorithm to solve a new mathematical model for cell formation in cellular manufacturing systems based on cell utilization concept. The p...
متن کاملThe Extended Cellular Automaton (x-ca) Model for Solar Flares
We have developed a new type of cellular automaton (CA) model, the extended CA (X-CA), for the study of solar flares. The X-CA model is consistent with the MHD approach, in contrast to the previously proposed CA models (classical CAs), it consistently yields all the relevant physical variables, and it successfully reproduces the observed distributions of total energy, peak flux, and duration of...
متن کاملAn Optimal Preventive Maintenance Model to Enhance Availability and Reliability of Flexible Manufacturing Systems
General preventive maintenance model for the components of a system, which improves the reliability to ‘as good as new,’ was used to optimize the maintenance cost. The cost function of a maintenance policy was minimized under given availability constraint. On the other hand, in order to ensure appropriate reliability and availability, the development of the optimal maintenanc...
متن کاملDeveloping a Multi-objective Mathematical Model for Dynamic Cellular Manufacturing Systems
This paper is in search of designing the cellular manufacturing systems (CMSs) under dynamic and flexible environment. CM is proper for small-to-medium lot production environment that helps the companies to produce variable kind of productions with at least scraps. The most important benefits of CM are decline in material handling, reduction in work-in-process, reduction in set-up time, increme...
متن کاملAn Automaton Based Framework for Analysis and Control of Flexible Manufacturing Systems
Development and maintenance of control software has emerged as one of the most difficult problems associated with building Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS). FMS controllers , potentially the most flexible FMS components, are characterized by their inflexibility. To support configuration flexibility of FMS controllers, this work proposes a modular hierarchical control structure which combine...
