The concept of machine requirement by lucky parts, the parts which are allowed to be produced in a specific period, is combined with the depreciable property of machines. Therefore, purchasing and selling of machines according to their book-value and generating income have been taken into account. This leads to a new vantage characteristic in cell formation where in each period we are only dealing with the types and number of machines required. The new mathematical model is presented and solved by exact and ant colony optimization methods for three problem sizes.https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4387_141fbba0b827d13b2996293dd3a3ab6c.pdfSharif University of TechnologyScientia Iranica1026-309824520171001Design of an innovative construction model for supply chain management by measuring agility and cost of quality: An empirical study25152526438810.24200/sci.2017.4388ENY.

CheraghiDepartment of Industrial Engineering, Albourz Campus, University of Tehran, Tehran, IranJournal Article20150720This paper aims to present a model for an agile supply chain network in construction enterprises with performance evaluation of suppliers and contractors. Management and selection of suppliers and contractors play an important role in the process of constructions since contractors are as corner stones of construction projects. Additionally, contractors are the main factor in converting resources to final products. Traditionally, contractor selection in construction projects is on the basis of the lowest proposed price. However, there are various qualitative and quantitative criteria with different priorities associated in this regards in order to make the best decision. In this paper, a hybrid method of DEA/AHP/FDEMATEL is used. First, important and effective evaluation criteria are selected through an FDEMATEL method. Then, the DEA/AHP method is implemented in order to evaluate and prioritize the selected indicators as well as to incorporate them in a supply chain. Furthermore, agility is involved in the considered supply chain network. Furthermore, in this paper for the first time in Iran, a supply chain model is studied and designed for civil companies.https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4388_70d440d5aaa38ce461930823400198f8.pdfSharif University of TechnologyScientia Iranica1026-309824520171001A new mathematical model for integrated production planning and scheduling problem in capacitated flexible flow shop with sequence-dependent setups25012514438910.24200/sci.2017.4389ENReza RamezanianDepartment of Industrial Engineering, K.N. Toosi University of Technology, Tehran, IranSahar Fallah SanamiDepartment of Economic and Management, Semnan University, Semnan, Iran.Vahid MahmoodianDepartment of Industrial Engineering, Iran University of Science and Technology, Tehran, IranJournal Article20150615The main contribution and novelty of this paper is proposing a more efficient mathematical model for integrated lot-sizing and scheduling in a multi-product multi-period capacitated flexible flow shop with sequence-dependent setups. A new approach for modeling the problem has been proposed and its complexity compared with former models. In comparison to the former models, because of fewer continuous and binary variables and constraints of proposed model makes it easy to be solved. Comparison between new model and former models proves the superiority of proposed model. Due to the complexity of the problem, three mixed-integer programming based heuristics all based on iterative resolutions of reduced-size MIPs and rolling horizon have been implemented to solve model. To evaluate the performance of the proposed model and solution method, problems of different scales have been studied. The used algorithms search the solution space for both lot-sizing and scheduling and find a combination of production planning and scheduling that is feasible and close to optimum. Computational results show that HA2 is superior for this problem and can find good quality solution for the problem in a reasonable computational time. Also, sensitivity analysis is used to clarify the problem and ensure suitability of the proposed model.https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4389_00c032f8def5664959e791731e6da7f5.pdfSharif University of TechnologyScientia Iranica1026-309824520171001The combination of TOPSIS method and Dijkstra’s algorithm in multi-attribute routing25402549439010.24200/sci.2017.4390ENE.

Shakeri KebriaKhaje Nasir University of Technology; Address: No. 7, Pardis Avenue, Vanak Square, Tehran, IranJournal Article20150926This paper introduces a new method called multi-attribute Dijkstra that is an extension of Dijkstra to determine the shortest path between two points of a graph while arcs between points, in addition to the distance, have other attributes such as time(distance), cost, emissions, risk and etc. Technique for order preferences by similarity to ideal (TOPSIS) method is used for ranking and selection of the routes which is a method for solving multi-attribute decision making problems (MADM). In this regard, we try to choose appropriate weights for the attributes to consider the right decision to create a balance between the effective elements in route selection. In this paper, the algorithm of Dijkstra and TOPSIS will be reviewed and the proposed method obtained by the combination of these two will also be described. Finally, three examples with different conditions are presented to represent the performance of the model. Then these examples are compared with single-attribute Dijkstra to realize effectiveness of the proposed method. Obviously in solving large-scale examples the approach based on coding in appropriate software.https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4390_98500d97b610181207816f13c4f171f7.pdfSharif University of TechnologyScientia Iranica1026-309824520171001A capacitated bike sharing location-allocation problem under demand uncertainty using sample average approximation: A greedy Genetic-Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm25672580439110.24200/sci.2017.4391ENEhsan Ali AskariDepartment of Industrial Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Shahed University, Tehran, IranMahdi BashiriDepartment of Industrial Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Shahed University, Tehran, Iran0000-0002-5448-1773Reza Tavakkoli-MoghaddamSchool of Industrial Engineering, College of Engineering, University of Tehran, Tehran, IranJournal Article20151014This paper considers a stochastic location-allocation problem for a capacitated bike sharing system (S-L&A-CBSS), in which a bike demand is uncertain. To tackle this uncertainty, a sample average approximation (SAA) method is used. Because this problem is an NP-hard problem, a hybrid greedy evolutionary algorithm based on genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO), namely greedy GA-PSO is embedded in the SAA method in order to solve the given large-sized problems. The performance of the proposed hybrid algorithm is tested by a number of numerical examples and used for empirical test based on Tehran business zone. Furthermore, the associated results show its efficiency in comparison to an exact solution method in solving small-sized problems.

Supply chain logistical and cross-functional drivers have an important role to manage customer satisfaction. Customer satisfaction depends on quality, cost and delivery. In this paper a fuzzy mixed integer nonlinear programming model is proposed for a multi-item multi-period problem in multi-level supply chain. Minimizing costs, manufacturing and transportation time, transportation risks, maximizing quality by minimizing the number of defective products and maximizing customers’ service levels are considered to be objective functions of the model. Furthermore, it is assumed that the demand rates are fuzzy values. An exact -constraint approach is used to solve the problem. The problem is computationally intractable. Therefore, the Non-dominant Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA-II) is developed to solve it. The Taguchi method is utilized to tune the NSGA-II parameters. Finally, some numerical examples are generated and solved to evaluate the performance of the proposed model and solving methods.https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4392_111be78bd234eda9053db453285f1503.pdfSharif University of TechnologyScientia Iranica1026-309824520171001A simple solution procedure to solve the multi-delivery policy into economic production lot size problem with partial rework26402644448410.24200/sci.2017.4484ENKun-Jen ChungCollege of Business, Chung Yuan Christian University, Chung Li, Taiwan, R.

However, in the real-life industrial engineering applica-<br />tions, the multidimensional knapsack problem often comes with uncertainty for lacking of the information<br />about these parameters. This paper investigates a constrained multidimensional knapsack problem under<br />uncertain environment, in which the relevant parameters are assumed to be uncertain variables. Within<br />the framework of uncertainty theory, two types of uncertain programming models with discount con-<br />straints are constructed for the problem with dierent decision criteria, i.e., the expected value criterion<br />and the critical value criterion. Taking full advantage of the operational law for uncertain variables, the<br />proposed models can be transformed into their corresponding deterministic models. After theoretically<br />investigating the properties of the models, we do some numerical experiments. The numerical results<br />illustrate that the proposed models are feasible and ecient for solving the constrained multidimensional<br />knapsack problem with uncertain parameters.https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4485_037bbad2ca12e83ee8047cf15871a171.pdf
