Performance Evaluation of the Primitive Mobility Execution of an AGV(Automated Guided Vehicle) within the MOAST(Mobility Open Architecture Simulation and Tools) Environment
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes the role of the Primitive Mobility (PrimMob) module within the Mobility Open Architecture Simulation and Tools(MOAST) environment. Descriptions are given of several alternative implementations of the module motivated by a desire to make MOAST more usable for an industrial Automated Guided Vehicle(AGV). A series of performance metrics is described as a series of tests that allow those performance metrics to be determined. Tools added to MOAST in 2009-2010 that greatly ease recording and visualization of these performance metrics are also described.

In brief, the AGV robot is a system which typically made up of vehicle chassis, embedded controller, motors, drivers, navigation and collision avoidance sensors, ...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulation to Compare Markovian and Neural Network Models for Reliability Assessment in Multiple AGV Manufacturing System
We compare two approaches for a Markovian model in flexible manufacturing systems (FMSs) using Monte Carlo simulation. The model which is a development of Fazlollahtabar and Saidi-Mehrabad (2013), considers two features of automated flexible manufacturing systems equipped with automated guided vehicle (AGV) namely, the reliability of machines and the reliability of AGVs in a multiple AGV jobsho...

Abstract : A tandem automated guided vehicle (AGV) system deals with grouping workstations into some non-overlapping zones , and assigning exactly one AGV to each zone. This paper presents a new non-linear integer mathematical model to group n machines into N loops that minimizes both inter and intra-loop flows simultaneously. Due to computational difficulties of exact methods in solving our pr...
