An imperialist competitive algorithm for solving the production scheduling problem in open pit mine
Production scheduling (planning) of an open-pit mine is the procedure during which the rock blocks are assigned to different production periods in a way that the highest net present value of the project achieved subject to operational constraints. The paper introduces a new and computationally less expensive meta-heuristic technique known as imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) for long-term...
متن کاملOptimizing Open Pit Block Scheduling with Exposed Ore Reserve
A crucial problem in the mining industry is to determine the optimal sequence of extraction of blocks, in which the mine has been structured for exploitation. Typically a mine can be constituted by several thousands or millions of blocks. The sequencing models for this structure are very complex giving rise to very large combinatorial linear models. Operational mine plans are usually produced o...
متن کاملA new algorithm for the open-pit mine scheduling problem
For the purpose of production scheduling, open pit mines are discretized into threedimensional arrays known as block models. Production scheduling consists in deciding which blocks should be extracted, when they should be extracted and how each extracted block should be processed. Blocks which are on top should be extracted first, and capacity constraints limit the production each time period. ...
متن کاملAggregation heuristic for the open-pit block scheduling problem
In order to establish a production plan, an open-pit mine is partitioned into a three-dimensional array of blocks. The order in which blocks are extracted and processed has a dramatic impact on the economic value of the exploitation. Since realistic models have millions of blocks and constraints, the combinatorial optimization problem of finding the extraction sequence that maximizes the profit...
متن کاملA genetic algorithm approach for open-pit mine production scheduling
In an Open-Pit Production Scheduling (OPPS) problem, the goal is to determine the mining sequence of an orebody as a block model. In this article, linear programing formulation is used to aim this goal. OPPS problem is known as an NP-hard problem, so an exact mathematical model cannot be applied to solve in the real state. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is a well-known member of evolutionary algorithms...
