Variability in Assembly and Competing Systems: Effect on Performance and Recovery
نویسنده
چکیده
We examine the effect of variability on the performance of an assembly system where two stations feed another station and a competing system where two independent stations are fed by a single station. We study the impact of variability in processing times, variability due to unreliable workstations, and variability due to imperfect yield. The above impact is examined for both PUSH and PULL manufacturing environments. We also discuss design features of the two configurations that could be used to recover part of the output lost due to variability.

Due to the variety of products, simultaneous production of different models has an important role in production systems. Moreover, considering the realistic constraints in designing production lines attracted a lot of attentions in recent researches. Since the assembly line balancing problem is NP-hard, efficient methods are needed to solve this kind of problems. In this study, a new hybrid met...
متن کاملA chance-constrained multi-objective model for final assembly scheduling in ATO systems with uncertain sub-assembly availability
A chance-constraint multi-objective model under uncertainty in the availability of subassemblies is proposed for scheduling in ATO systems. The on-time delivery of customer orders as well as reducing the company's cost is crucial; therefore, a three-objective model is proposed including the minimization of1) overtime, idletime, change-over, and setup costs, 2) total dispersion of items’ deliver...

متن کاملAnalysis and study of geometrical variability on the performance of junctionless tunneling field effect transistors: Advantage or deficiency?
This study investigates geometrical variability on the sensitivity of the junctionless tunneling field effect transistor (JLTFET) and Heterostructure JLTFET (HJLTFET) performance. We consider the transistor gate dielectric thickness as one of the main variation sources. The impacts of variations on the analog and digital performance of the devices are calculated by using computer aided design (...

High speed trains are an indispensable part of rapid transportation systems in many countries. As the fastest means of transport on the ground, these trains are extremely sensitive to the terrain and track conditions. Geometrical irregularities and mechanical characteristics of the track, together with inconsistencies in the lane (including bridges that support the track) are considered importa...
