Optimization of the Maintenance Process Using Genetic Algorithms

چکیده
In this paper, we will present an approach for assessment and ranking of maintenance process performance indicators using the fuzzy set approach and genetic algorithms. Weight values of maintenance process indicators are defined using the experience of decision makers from analysed SMEs and calculated using the fuzzy set approach. In the second step, a model for ranking and optimization of maintenance process performance indicators and SMEs is presented. Based on this, each SME can identify their maintenance process weaknesses and gaps, and improve maintenance process performance. The presented model quantifies maintenance process performances, ranks the indicators and provides a basis for successful improvement of the quality of the maintenance process.

Three Hybrid Metaheuristic Algorithms for Stochastic Flexible Flow Shop Scheduling Problem with Preventive Maintenance and Budget Constraint
Stochastic flexible flow shop scheduling problem (SFFSSP) is one the main focus of researchers due to the complexity arises from inherent uncertainties and also the difficulty of solving such NP-hard problems. Conventionally, in such problems each machine’s job process time may encounter uncertainty due to their relevant random behaviour. In order to examine such problems more realistically, fi...
متن کاملOptimization of Cutting Parameters Based on Production Time Using Colonial Competitive (CC) and Genetic (G) Algorithms
A properly designed machining procedure can significantly affect the efficiency of the production lines. To minimize the cost of machining process as well as increasing the quality of products, cutting parameters must permit the reduction of cutting time and cost to the lowest possible levels. To achieve this, cutting parameters must be kept in the optimal range. This is a non-linear optimizati...
