Single and mixed-model assembly line balancing methods for both deterministic and normally distributed work element times

Creator:

Rao, Dodla Nageswara

Abstract:

Line balancing is concerned with the optimal assignment of work elements to individual operators in an assembly line of a mass producing system. This paper summarizes the assembly line balancing terminology, the computational methods, and objective functions applicable to a wide variety of assembly lines. Single and mixed-model situations for...
