CHAUVIN, ALVEAR D. M. Aplicação de algoritmos genéticos na otimização da topologia e geometria do layout de um estaleiro. 2018. 111 f. Dissertação (Mestrado em Engenharia Although the facility layout problem (FLP) has been extensively studied, this effort has not been reflected in the layout study for shipyards layout; on the contrary, in practice the majority of shipyard layouts were designed based on the experiences acquired by the specialists in this industry, and not following an analytical and systematized methodology. For this reason, the work of the authors Choi et al (2017) is significant in order to propose a quantitative method based on the techniques of facility layout planning methodology (FLP) and architectural layout focused for the shipyard layout problem (ShLP); consisting of optimization of the topology and geometry of a shipyard. In this study, the problem proposed by the authors was replicated and adapted, applying a genetic algorithm based on order for the first step; and the replication of the model to the second. In addition, it is also proposed the incorporation of a third step for the geometric optimization, based on a general genetic algorithm, in order to achieve significant improvements in the final geometric layout. The tests carried out indicated a 6% reduction in materials handling costs, MHC. Moreover, it was verified the quality of the layouts obtained through the use of the factory layout performance indexes proposed by the literature, in order to obtain a correct comparison between the final layout reported by the authors and the one obtained in this study.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
