Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing a comprehensive inroduction to quantitative methods for facility layout and location, this text is directed at senior and graduate level students in industrial engineering, manufacturing systems, management science, and operations research curricula. Problems of facility layout and location are treated together because of the similarity between arranging the space in a single facility and arranging a systems of facilities. An introduction to the field'sissues and literature is included, along with the basic tools and methodologies. The second edition revises over half of the text to provide material reflecting the most current developments. Chapters contain explanations of what layout and location problems are, how to collect data, and show how to model and solve such problems.

Book excerpt: This book presents a structured approach to develop mathematical optimization formulations for several variants of facility layout. The range of layout problems covered includes row layouts, floor layouts, multi-floor layouts, and dynamic layouts. The optimization techniques used to formulate the problems are primarily mixed-integer linear programming, second-order conic programming, and semidefinite programming. The book also covers important practical considerations for solving the formulations. The breadth of approaches presented help the reader to learn how to formulate a variety of problems using mathematical optimization techniques. The book also illustrates the use of layout formulations in selected engineering applications, including manufacturing, building design, automotive, and hospital layout.

Book excerpt: Now in Its Fourth Edition: Your Guide to Successful Facility Design Overcome design and planning problems using the fourth edition of Facilities Design. Dedicated to the proper design, layout, and location of facilities, this definitive guide outlines the main design and operational problems that occur in manufacturing and service systems, explains the significance of facility design and planning problems, and describes how mathematical models can be used to help analyze and solve them. Combining theory with practice, this revised work presents state-of-the-art topics in materials handling, warehousing, and logistics along with real-world examples that emphasize the importance of modeling and analysis when determining a solution to complex facility design problems. What’s New in the Fourth Edition: The latest version introduces new material that includes handling equipment and systems, and presents relevant case studies in each and every chapter. It also provides access to Layout-iQ software, data files for many of the numerical examples that are contained throughout the book, and PowerPoint files for various chapters. Additionally, the author: Describes tools commonly used for presenting layout designs Presents traditional models for facility layout including the popular systematic layout planning (SLP) model in detail Provides a layout project involving the SLP model Covers group technology and cellular manufacturing at the elementary level Includes a project and case study on machine grouping and layout Considers next-generation factory layouts Discusses analytical queuing and queuing network models, and more Facilities Design, Fourth Edition explains the ins and outs of facility planning and design. A reference for both student and professional, the book addresses facilities design and layout problems in manufacturing systems and covers layout, logistics, supply chain, warehousing, and materials handling.
