The fundamental function of a cellular manufacturing system (CMS) is based on definition and recognition of a type of similarity among parts that should be produced in a planning period. Cell formation (CF) and cell layout design are two important steps in implementation of the CMS. This paper represents a new nonlinear mathematical programming model for dynamic cell formation that employs the ...

operator's role in industrial control centers takes place in time, which is one of the most important determinants of whether an expected action is going to be successful or not. in certain situations, due to the complex nature of the work, the existing interfaces and already prepared procedures do not meet the dynamic requirements of operator's cognitive demands, making the control tasks unnec...

This paper proposes an optimization method for electric vehicle charging station locations considering dynamic demand. Firstly, the driving characteristics and of are obtained based on trajectory vehicle, demand is predicted using a Monte Carlo simulation. Then mathematical model with goal minimizing overall cost constructed, impact carbon emissions considered in model. In order to better solve...

This paper explores a case of flexible facility layout, in which the layout process can be carried out in a dynamic manner responding to changing demands. We consider a facility such as an office building that needs to partition its interior space into units of different sizes and allocate them to different users. Facing different demands, each of which requires a different space size, the mana...
