The major benefit of using Cellular manufacturing systems (CMS) is the improvement in efficiency and reduction production time. In a CMS part families machine parts are identified to minimise inter intracellular movement maximise utilisation machines within each cell. Many scholars have proposed methods for evaluation cell layouts with single routes; this paper introduces modified Hybrid Tabu S...

In this study, a novel effective algorithm called HTC which results from hybridization process between the teaching–learning-based optimization (TLBO) and charged system search (CSS) algorithms is proposed utilized to optimize planar steel frames. Among features of algorithm, simplicity low number setting parameters can be mentioned. The main goals are establish balance exploration exploitation...
