Abstract:

Extensive research has been devoted to economic production quantity (EPQ) problem. However, little atten-tion has been paid to problems where depreciation cost and process quality cost must be considered, simulta-neously. In this paper, we consider the economic production quantity model of minimizing the annual total cost subject to depreciation cost and process quality cost, where depreciation cost and process quality cost are assumed to be continuous functions of holding time and of production run length, respectively. Local search meta-heuristics: iterated local search (ILS) and simulated annealing (SA) are proposed to solve proposed model. Finally, the meta-heuristics are computationally compared by using some numerical examples and re-sults are analyzed.

An EPQ model with setup cost and process quality as functions of capital expenditure

This paper considers an economic production quantity (EPQ) model with imperfect production processes, in which the setup cost and process quality are functions of capital expenditure. The mathematical model is derived to investigate the effects of an imperfect production process on the optimal production cycle time when capital investment strategies in setup reduction and process quality improv...

A Partially Observable Markovian Maintenance Process with Continuous Cost Functions

In this paper a two-state Markovian maintenance process where the true state is unknown will be considered. The operating cost per period is a continuous random variable which depends on the state of the process. If investigation cost is incurred at the beginning of any period, the system wit I be returned to the "in-control" state instantaneously. This problem is solved using the average crite...

A Simulation-based Method for the Process to Allow Continuous Tracking of Quality, Cost, and Time

A simulation-based methodology is developed for continuously tracking and analyzing the quality of product, associated cost, and time during the manufacturing process. In particular, the metal-to-metal bonding process related to the prefit stage is selected for the study, in which required mating conditions for detail parts that make up the bonded assembly are critical. Finally, the results of ...
