“…FLP is the process of physically locating departments, workstations, equipment, and storage areas to achieve maximum operational efficiency at minimum cost. 6 With an efficient facility layout arrangement, material handling processes are accelerated, and operational costs can be significantly reduced due to the reduction in the duration of intermediate products in the process. 7 A poorly planned layout arrangement can lead to lower productivity of workers, longer queues during production, material handling stacks, and resulting financial losses.…”

Shipyards have large departments or facilities. It is essential to make an effective topological layout plan since the initial investment cost of these departments is high. Topological layout is an optimization problem and Genetic Algorithm (GA) is generally used in the literature. The selection of effective genetic algorithm approaches and operators are very important to improve the performance of the optimization. This study investigates an effective solution to the shipyard topological layout using a Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) model with classic and elitist GA approaches. Besides, genetic operators that have significant effects on exploitation and exploration capabilities are analyzed. Therefore, 126 experiments were run with 13 different operators. The results obtained from the classic and elitist GA approach were evaluated individually and compared with each other. It was observed that the elitist GA approach has a superior performance compared to the classic GA approach. This study is the most comprehensive and practical study on the performance of the GA for topological layout of the shipyard in the literature.

“…Guneri et al [50] and Sahin et al [51] use a fuzzy AHP shipyard selection based on game theory. There is a broad application of FST in the case of the selection process, such as selecting the best maintenance approach [52], selecting the best propulsion/ manoeuvring system [53], supplier selection in the shipbuilding industry [54], shipping registry selection for existing ship or newly built ship [55], and shipyard facility layout selection [56]. In the performance measurement case, Chou and Liang [57] and Celik et al [58] use fuzzy to evaluate performance evaluation in shipping companies and docking facilities, respectively.…”

This paper proposes a novel performance measurement framework to enhance the decision-making process in assessing the ship manufacturing (shipbuilding, ship repair, and ship conversion/modification) industry. Integrated Value Engineering and Risk Assessment (VENRA) approach performance measurement for ship manufacturing is developed to tackle the problem. Thorough literature and critical study of the existing performance measurement for ship manufacturing are reviewed to create novel VENRA performance measurements. The attributes collected from the literature are grouped into four criteria performance, named VENRA attributes, combining the technical, business, external and safety/risk performance groups. The initial model will be assessed through fuzzy DEMATEL TOPSIS to achieve the weighted score of each attribute. The framework will be applied to three shipyard case studies in Indonesia. The quantitative data (from shipyards) and qualitative data (from expert opinion/judgment) will be included to get the results and the framework’s effectiveness.

“…Dixit et al [29] took the relationship degrees for the plant into account, and the linguistic pattern approach can be employed to determine the installing cost of each facility in each possible place in the form of fuzzy sets [30]. Multiobjective layout research has been carried out and achieved consistent results.…”

End of life vehicle (ELV) is a significant renewable resource with enormous economic value and environmental value. New regulation promulgated by the State Council of PRC has been implemented since June 2019, allows main assemblies of ELV can be sold to remanufacture enterprises, which dramatically prompts more enterprises to invest in the recycling industry. According to the technological recovery characteristics of ELV, the system layout design (SLP) method is briefly applied to arrange the plant facility layout of ELV recycling and disassembly enterprise. The relationship between logistics and non-logistics was firstly analyzed, and the operating unit correlation diagram of location and area were presented correspondingly. Then, through further modification and adjustment, the feasible layout scheme was obtained, and the reasonable general layout of the plant area was determined by using the weighted factor method. As a critical functional unit of the factory area, the detailed planning and design of the disassembly and shredding workshop were further presented. A detailed facility layout and logistics route of the disassembly and shredding workshop are finally proposed according to the obtained correlation diagram of the operating unit area based SLP, which has been implemented in a recycling company in Changsha, a typical case in China. Combined with the theoretical techniques of statistics, intelligent algorithms, and logistics analysis under the background of modern green production and sustainable manufacturing, this work can provide a new approach for plant layout design and optimization for ELV recycling and disassembly industry.INDEX TERMS end of life vehicle, recycle and disassembly, plant facility layout, sustainable design, SLP.
