Abstract

Nowadays, in turbulent and violate global markets, agility has been considered as a fundamental characteristic of a supply chain needed for survival. To achieve the competitive edge, companies must align with suppliers and customers to streamline operations, as well as agility beyond individual companies. Consequently Agile Supply Chain (ASC) is considered as a dominant competitive advantage.  However, so far a little effort has been made for designing, operating and evaluating agile supply chain in recent years. Therefore, in this study a new approach has been developed based on Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) for evaluating agility in supply chain considering agility capabilities such as Flexibility, Competency, Cost, Responsiveness and Quickness. This evaluation helps managers to perform gap analysis between existent agility level and the desired one and also provides more informative and reliable information for decision making. Finally the proposed model has been applied to a leading car manufacturing company in Iran to prove the applicability of the model.

Abstract

  Selection of appropriate infrastructure transportation projects such as highways, plays an important role in promotion of transportation systems. Usually in evaluation of transportation projects, because of lack of information or due to long time and high expenditures needed for gathering information, different effective factors are ignored. Thus, in this research, regarding multi criteria nature of transportation projects selection and using fuzzy logic, an appropriate conceptual framework for ranking and selecting transportation projects is proposed. Also, unlike the previous researches, we've applied a fuzzy inference system (FIS) to account value of each project with respect to each criterion, in the proposed methodology. The FIS helps us to set rule-based systems for paying attention to expert's experience and professional knowledge in decision making. The proposed methodology is explained in detail through an applicable example. We've considered most common criteria including effect of transportation project on traffic flow, economical growth and environment beside budget constraint, in the descriptive example.

Abstract

Human-based quality control reduces the accuracy of this process. Also, the speed of decision making in some industries is very important. For removing these limitations in human-based quality control, in this paper, the design of an expert system for automatic and intelligent quality control is investigated. In fact, using an intelligent system, the accuracy in quality control is increased. It requires the knowledge of experts in quality control and design of expert systems based on the knowledge and information provided by human and equipment. For this purpose, Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) and Image Processing approach are integrated. In this expert system, the input information is the images of the products and the results of processing on images for quality control are as output. At first, they may be noisy images; the pre-processing is done and then a fuzzy system is used to be processed. In this fuzzy system, according to the images, the rules are designed to extract the specific features that are required. At second, after the required attributes are extracted, the control chart is used in terms of quality. Furthermore, the empirical case study of copper rods industry is presented to show the abilities of the proposed approach.

Abstract

Today, one of the most important concerns of production units is the evaluation, analysis and risk management in the production process. In this research, based on the fuzzy control approach, a scientific and logical method for evaluating, analyzing and managing risk in the production process is presented. Based on the proposed method of this research, after identifying the risks in the production process of products, according to the three criteria of failure severity, probability of failure and detectability, as well as using the best - worst method, evaluation and determining the importance of these risks, is done. Then, with the fuzzy rules, fuzzy inference system is designed. The final result is the classification and prioritization of identified risks. Finally, the proposed research model for an applied sample is used and its final results are analyzed.

Abstract

One of the most important issues regarding community health is animal health, followed by the health of animal products. Providing a sustainable environment for production facilities like livestock centers is essential. In this study, we have proposed designing four fuzzy inference systems for managing the sustainability of livestock centers. The first, second, and third systems are applied for the economic, social, and environmental dimensions. The fourth is for a system whose output is the sustainability level while its inputs are the three addressed sustainability dimensions. The data source was experts' judgment, and the major limitation of this research was access to a limited number of experts in making system rules. The validation is made by cross-checking with other experts. Considering a maximum of 10 points for each sustainability dimension and supposing that the economic dimension is 5.05, the social dimension is 7.77 and the environmental dimension is 8.12, the sustainability level turns out to be 7.92
