Abstract: Problem statement: We studied the inventory-production system with two-parameter Weibull distributed deterioration items. Approach: The inventory model was developed as linear optimal control problem and by the Pontryagin maximum principle, the optimal control problem was solved analytically to obtain the optimal solution of the problem. Results: It was then illustrated with the help ...

In this paper, production-inventory models for a deteriorating item in a single vendor-buyer system has been developed with constant production and demand rate. Shortages at the buyer (when it is allowed) depends on time. The models have been formulated as cost minimization problem via both integrated and non-integrated approaches and solved using genetic algorithms developed to solve the singl...

In this paper, an inventory model for an item is presented with inflation and stock dependent demand under non-instantaneous deterioration without allowing shortages. In real life conditions, freshness and quality ofsome products can be maintaining Here in this inventory model we assume that some products maintain originality for some time. The necessary and sufficient conditions are used to fi...

This paper proposes an inventory control model for fixed deterioration and Logarithmic demand rat for the optimal stock of commodities to meet the future demand which may either arise at a constant rate or may vary with time. The analytical development is provided to obtain the optimal solution to minimize the total cost per time unit of an inventory control system. Numerical analysis has been ...

In this paper, an EOQ inventory model is depleted not only by time varying demand but also by Weibull distribution deterioration, in which the inventory is permitted to start with shortages and end without shortages. A theory is developed to obtain the optimal solution of the problem; it is then illustrated with the aid of several numerical examples. Moreover, we also assume that the holding co...

This paper considers the impact of random machine breakdowns on the classical Economic Production Quantity (EPQ) model for a product subject to exponential decay and under a no-resumption (NR) inventory control policy. A product is manufactured in batches on a machine that is subject to random breakdowns in order to meet a constant demand over an infinite planning horizon. The product is assume...

We study a continuous review inventory model over a nite-planning horizon with deterministic varying demand and constant deterioration rate. The model allows for shortages, which are partially backlogged at a rate which varies exponentially with time. For this model an optimal replenishment policy is established. c © 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The authors consider in this paper an integrated forecasting production system of the tracking type. The demand rate during a certain period depends on the demand rate of the previous period. Also, the demand rate depends on the inventory level. Items on the shelves are subject to deterioration. Using a model predictive control approach, the authors obtain the optimal production rate, the optim...

In this study, a deterministic inventory model in which items are subject to constant deterioration and shortages are allowed. The unsatisfied demand is backlogged which is a function of time. The optimal order quantity is derived by minimizing the total cost. The numerical example is given to support the result. The convexity of the cost function is shown numerically. Sensitivity analysis is c...

This paper is concerned with the optimal control of a production inventory system with time-varying deteriorating items. It is assumed that the deterioration rate follows the two parameters generalized exponential distribution. The continuous review policy is investigated. The optimality conditions are derived using Pontryagin maximum principle. The optimal total cost, the optimal inventory lev...
