Genetic algorithms (GAs) are a class of adaptive search techniques which have gained popularity in optimisation. In particular they have successfully been applied to NP hard problems such as those resulted in mathematical modelling of facilities design problems. The typical steps required to impleme
AbstractΓIn this paper, we formulate a model solving both inter-cell and intra-cell facility layout problems for cellular manufacturing systems. This model minimizes the total material handling distance on the shop Β―oor. Due to the complexity of the problem, we propose an improved simulated annealin
A common simulation approach, widely employed in industry for optimal process/product design, is applied in this paper to the sensitivity analysis of structural systems. It is shown how orthogonal array based technique, once suitably customized, may result in a valuable piece of information for the
