Ever since the times of Henry Ford up to today's industry 4.0 era, flow-oriented assembly
processes, where an assembly line conveys the workpieces from workstation to workstation …

In the research on production economics, line balancing is an intensively studied
combinatorial optimisation problem. In our previous comprehensive survey on line …

A constant development of gas utilization in domestic households, industry, and power
plants has slowly transformed gaseous petrol into a noteworthy wellspring of energy. Supply …

As the U-shaped assembly lines are concerned with manual assembly operations, workers'
performance plays a major role. However, the past studies assume that all workers can carry …

Multi-manned workstations, where a worker team synchronously executes different
operations on the same product, have the potential to increase disassembly line …

Assembly lines (conveyors) are traditional means of large-scale and mass-scale
productions. An assembly line balancing problem is needed for optimizing the assembly …

This work studies an assembly line balancing problem with uncertainty on the task times. In
order to deal with the uncertainty, a robust formulation to handle changes in the operation …

In this study, we present two new mathematical models for mixed-model assembly line
balancing. The line is semi-automated and characterized by various alternative formats for …

In real life, some situations such as demand fluctuations, changes in product structure, and
workstation failures affect the existing balance of assembly lines, resulting in the need for …

In order to minimize costs, manufacturing companies have been relying on assembly lines
for the mass production of commodity goods. Among other issues, the successful operation …
