• A pooling strategy for flexible repair shop designs 

      Turan, Hasan Huseyin; Pokharel, Shaligram; Sleptchenko, Andrei; ElMekkawy, Tarek Y; Al-Khatib, Maryam ( SciTePress , 2018 , Conference Paper)
      We discuss the design problem of a repair shop in a single echelon repairable multi-item spare parts supply system. The repair shop consists of several parallel multi-skilled servers, and storage facilities for the repaired ...
    • Integrated Optimization for Stock Levels and Cross-Training Schemes with Simulation-Based Genetic Algorithm 

      Turan, Hasan Huseyin; Pokharel, Shaligram; Sleptchenko, Andrei; Elmekkawy, Tarek Y. ( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2017 , Conference Paper)
      A spare part supply system for repairable spares in a repair shop is modeled as a set of heterogeneous parallel servers that have the ability to repair only certain types of repairables. The proposed model minimizes the ...
    • Simulation based particle swarm optimization of cross-training policies in spare parts supply systems 

      Sleptchenko, Andrei; Elmekkawy, Tarek; Turan, Hasan Huseyin; Pokharel, Shaligram ( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2017 , Conference Paper)
      We study a single location supply system for repairable spare parts. The system consists of a multi-server repair shop and inventory with ready-to-use spare parts. When a failed part is received, a new (or as-good-as-new) ...
