- This study is motivated by a real-world assembly line in an automotive manufacturing company and it addresses the simple assembly line balancing problem type-E (SALBPE). The SALBPE aims to maximize the balance efficiency (BE) through determining the best combinations of cycle time and station number. To cope with the problem, a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) model is proposed. The MINLP model differs from the existing ALBPE models as it includes the technological requirements of assembly tasks and optimizes the variation of workload beside the BE. The validity of the proposed model is tested by solving the real-world case study and a set of benchmark problems.

- This paper aims to investigate the effect of station demands variations on supermarket location problem (SLP). This problem arises in the real-world assembly line part feeding (PF) context where supermarkets are used as the intermediate storage areas for stations. To this purpose a stochastic SLP model is developed to optimize the total cost of PF in terms of shipment, inventory and installation costs. The computational results over a real case as well as different test instances verify that the station demands variation has an effect on the SLP solutions.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper aims to deal with assembly line design from both line balancing and parts feeding (PF) aspects as two-interrelated decision problems while supermarkets are used. These problems arise in the real-world assembly lines (ALs) where decision makers are planning to simultaneously determine the optimal number of stations and the optimal number of supermarkets so that the total installation costs of ALs including line balancing and PF costs are minimized. To this purpose an integrated mathematical model is proposed and its performance is tested through solving a number of benchmark problems and a real case taken from industry.
