Description
- This thesis investigates optimisation techniques for scheduling an online autonomous mobile robot system for pickup and delivery with stochastic transportation requests revealed sequentially over a rolling horizon. In contrast to further research, the focus belays in a large-scale specification with a high traffic density, i.e. 100 robots in an assembly hall with 50,000 m². The aim of this study is to develop interoperable scheduling modules for an optimal overall performance of an AMR system.

Uncertainty, an inherent characteristic of our reality, serves as a compelling rationale for favoring simulation modeling over deterministic calculations when striving to make reliable predictions for systems characterized by inherent stochasticity. Random number generators that use computational algorithms can produce values based on random distri...
This study presents a comprehensive examination of the application of traditional statistical methods to simulation modeling within the hypothetical context of comparing manual and automated production lines in manufacturing. Through a detailed methodology involving the AnyLogic simulation platform and Minitab for statistical analysis, we emphasize...
Uncertainty, as a constant companion of our world, is one major reason why simulation modelling takes precedence over static calculations to achieve accurate predictions. Computational random number generators are able to algorithmically determine values on the basis of random distributions, which utilise seed values to calculate streams of random...
The allocation of tasks to Autonomous Mobile Robots in a production setting in combination with the most efficient parking and charging processes are the focus of this paper. This study presents a simulative evaluation of the theoretical allocation methods developed in Selmair and Maurer (2020) combined with either hard or dynamic availability rule...
The optimal allocation of transportation tasks to a fleet of vehicles, especially for large-scale systems of more than 20 Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), remains a major challenge in logistics. Optimal in this context refers to two criteria: how close a result is to the best achievable objective value and the shortest possible computational time....

In this paper, our aim was to extend an existing decentralised method for allocating tasks to AGVs, by additionally considering vehicles which already are assigned to a task. This was achieved by also taking into account the opportunity costs arising from a vehicle passing a current task to another vehicle and subsequently accepting a new task. By...

This paper presents our work in progress for the development of an efficient charging & parking strategy. Our research aim is to develop a strategy that not only provides an efficient approach to charging AGV batteries, but also reduces traffic density in a highly utilised large-scale AGV system. Alongside the current state-of-the-art solution, thr...
The efficient distribution of scarce resources has been a challenge in many different fields of research. This paper focuses on the area of operations research, more specifically, Automated Guided Vehicles intended for pick-up and delivery tasks. In time delivery in general and flexibility in particular are important KPIs for such systems. In order...

The efficient allocation of tasks to vehicles in a fleet of self-driving vehicles (SDV) becomes challenging for largescale systems (e.g. more than hundred vehicles). Operations research provides different methods that can be applied to solve such assignment problems. Integer Linear Programming (ILP), the Hungarian Method (HM) or Vogel’s Approximati...
Scheduling approaches for the charging of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are based on three key components: the timing of charging processes, the selection of a charging station and the duration of the charging process. Based on literature research introduced in this paper, two scheduling approaches have been studied: a rigid approach, based on s...

Motivated by the increasing share of renewable energy in the markets for energy commodities, this study has evaluated the potential for optimizing production planning by taking into account disposable options for procuring energy, in this case electricity. For this purpose, a material flow simulation study extended by an electricity price simulatio...
The rising energy prices – particularly over the last decade – pose a new challenge for the manufacturing industry. Reactions to climate change, such as the advancement of renewable energies, raise the expectation of further price increases and variations. Regarding the manufacturing industry, production planning and controlling can have a signific...
