Capacity restrictions and supply chain performance: Modelling and analysing load-dependent lead times
(Elsevier, 2018)
Several studies have reported that capacitated supply chains may benefit from an improved dynamic performance as compared to unconstrained ones. This occurs as a consequence of the capacity limit acting as a production ...

Analysis of dynamic reliability surveillance: a case study
(Oxford University Press ; IMA Institute of Mathematics and its Applications, 2018-01)
In this paper a reliability model based on artificial neural networks and the generalized renewal process is developed. The model is used for failure prediction, and is able to dynamically adapt to changes in the operating ...

Economic and environmental analysis of a residential PV system: A profitable contribution to the Paris agreement
(Pergamon, 2018)
The aim of this paper is to analyze the economic and environmental aspects of installing PV facilities for residential electricity users. This paper explores, in a conservative approach, the installation of a PV capacity ...

Single machine scheduling with periodic machine availability
(Elsevier Ltd, 2018-09)
In this paper we address the problem of scheduling jobs on a single machine with cyclical machine availability periods. In this problem, the scheduling horizon is composed of periods where the machine is available followed ...

A decision-making model to design a sustainable container depot logistic network: the case of the port of Valencia
(Vilnius Gediminas Technical University Press, 2018)
In this paper, the design of a maritime container depot logistic network in a hinterland is studied. Containers are a basic tool in multimodal product transportation and all related operations have an impact on the ...

Increasing Sustainability of Logistic Networks by Reducing Product Losses: A Network DEA Approach
(Hindawi Limited, 2018)
This paper considers a multiproduct supply network, in which losses (e.g., spoilage of perishable products) can occur at either the nodes or the arcs. Using observed data, a Network Data Envelopment Analysis (NDEA) approach ...

An optimization approach for designing routes in metrological control services: a case study
(Springer, 2018)
This paper is the first to tackle the problem of designing routes in service companies that are responsible for the metrological control of measuring equipments at customer sites. This real-world problem belongs to the ...

Information sharing in supply chains with heterogeneous retailers
(Elsevier, 2018)
This work analyses partial information sharing involving retailers with different operational configurations. Retailers are characterized by four operational factors, i.e., demand variance, lead time average, forecasting ...

Iterated-greedy-based algorithms with beam search initialization for the permutation flowshop to minimize total tardiness
(Elsevier, 2018)
The permutation flow shop scheduling problem is one of the most studied operations research related problems. Literally, hundreds of exact and approximate algorithms have been proposed to optimise several objective functions. ...
