An economic production quantity model with demand dependent unit production cost in fuzzy environment has been developed. Flexibility and reliability consideration are introduced in the production process. The models are developed under fuzzy goal and fuzzy restrictions on budgetary cost. The inventory related costs and other parameters are taken as fuzzy in nature. The problem is solved by par...

In this paper, a fuzzy mathematical programming model is proposed to address integrated production and routing planning decisions which considers uncertain production and inventory capacities, as well as production, setup, inventory holding and transport costs. This proposal considers flexible constraints and the lack of knowledge related to the previous input parameters which are modelled by u...

A production inventory model is formulated for a single item. Here,demand varies with the on-hand inventory level and production price. Shortages are allowed and fully backlogged. The time gap between the decision and actual commencement of production is termed as ’preparation time’ and is assumed to be crisp/imprecise in nature. The set-up cost depends on preparation time. The fuzzy preparatio...

Most of the earlier studies in the inventory control and management make assumption that the manufacturing system is reliable and does not fail. However, in the real industrial applications, there is no completely reliable manufacturing system; Machine failure occur and the production does not resume before repair. In this paper we will study and analyze the optimal lot size in a real productio...

This study has developed a production inventory model where the cycle timeis fuzzy, the existence of defective products is assumed in each batch andproduct screening is performed both in-production and after-production.Triangular fuzzy numbers serve to model uncertainties in the cycle time, anda fuzzified total inventory profit function is created by thedefuzzifica...

In this paper, we consider a network of supplier, producer, retailer and customer which synchronizes a series of inter-related business process in terms of integrated supply chain production inventory model. The whole system is considered for a finite time period with imprecise inventory costs. There are imprecise chance constraints on the transportation costs for both producer, retailer and al...

This paper recommends a scaling factors fine-tuning fuzzy logic control approach to optimize the dynamic performance of one typical vendor managed inventory supply chain with automatic pipeline, inventory and order based production control system(VMI-APIOBPCS), based on complex fuzzy control theory. The first thing is to embed a dual-input single-output fuzzy logic controller into the system ba...

this study considers an eoq inventory model with advance payment policy in a fuzzy situation by employing two types of fuzzy numbers that are trapezoidal and triangular. two fuzzy models are developed here. in the first model the cost parameters are fuzzified, but the demand rate is treated as crisp constant. in the second model, the demand rate is fuzzified but the cost parameters are treated ...

In the fundamental production inventory model, in order to solve the economic production quantity (EPQ) we always fix both the demand quantity and the production quantity per day. But, in the real situation, both of them probably will have little disturbances every day. Therefore, we should fuzzify both of them to solve the economic production quantity (q*) per cycle. Using α-cut for defuzzific...
