The bin packing problem is a well-studied problem in combinatorial optimization. In the
classical bin packing problem, we are given a list of real numbers in (0, 1] and the goal is to …

Many algorithms that were developed for solving three-dimensional bin packing problems
use generic data for either experiments or evaluation. However, none of these datasets …

The bin packing problem has been the corner stone of approximation algorithms and has
been extensively studied starting from the early seventies. In the classical bin packing …

In recent years, robotics has been largely applied to improve the efficiency of logistic
processes. Pallets cover a crucial role in the logistic flow, since they represent the main way …

In warehouse logistics, palletizing algorithms usually precalculate a pack pattern that
determines the palletizing sequence of load carriers (LCs). Whenever this sequence is …

This work explores a novel palletization strategy for an industrial robot that allows parts to
overhang from the edges of a bin while maintaining stack stability. This allows the palletizing …

THAT the passive compliance embedded in their mechanical design and the active
compliance conferred by their control laws have been allowing industrial robots out of the …

This thesis presents the development of a model for a unique bin packing and stacking of
parts. The methodology developed is applied to a problem in a manufacturing industry …
