By Seamus M. McGovern,Surendra M. Gupta

The definitive consultant to the disassembly line

The Disassembly Line: Balancing and Modeling presents in-depth info in this complicated procedure necessary to remanufacturing, recycling, and environmentally wakeful production. This pioneering paintings deals effective innovations required to unravel difficulties related to the variety of workstations required and the disassembly sequencing of end-of-life items at the disassembly line.

In this ebook, the disassembly line balancing challenge (DLBP) is defined, outlined mathematically, and illustrated by way of case stories. Combinatorial optimization methodologies are awarded as options to the DLBP.

Coverage includes:

  • Graphical representations of goods to be disassembled
  • Computational complexity of combinatorial problems
  • Description of the disassembly line and the mathematical model
  • Computational complexity of the DLBP
  • Combinatorial optimization searches
  • Experimental instances
  • Analytical methodologies
  • Exhaustive search
  • Genetic algorithm
  • Ant colony optimization
  • Greedy algorithm
  • Greedy/adjacent aspect hill mountain climbing hybrid
  • Greedy/2-opt hybrid
  • H-K heuristic
  • Quantitative and qualitative comparative analysis

This authoritative quantity additionally covers product making plans, line and facility layout, sequencing and scheduling, stock, simply in time, profit, and unbalanced lines.

Im vorliegenden Band wird das Verhalten von thermisch entspanntem und thermisch vorgespanntem Kalk-Natron-Silikatglas bei schwingender Beanspruchung anhand von Dauerschwingprüfungen im Doppelring- und 3-Punkt-Biegeversuch unter verschiedenen Randbedingungen untersucht. Zudem wird überprüft, ob Kalk- Natron-Silikatglas bei periodischer Beanspruchung eine Ermüdungsschwelle aufweist und Rissheilungseffekte zwischen den einzelnen Lastzyklen auftreten.
