An Uncertain Programming Model for Manufacturing/Remanufacturing Hybrid System in Reverse Logistics Environment

Article Preview

Abstract:

An uncertain programming model for the manufacturing/remanufacturing hybrid system in reverse logistics environment under grey and fuzzy uncertainty was proposed. It considers the material suppliers, manufacturing plant, distribution centers, retailers, collection centers, disassembly center and remanufacturing center. The designed neural network can expedite the simulation process after trained from the input-output data generated with the proposed grey fuzzy simulation method. The improved Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm based on the Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm is used to optimize the uncertain model. The numerical example illustrates that the cost will increase with the higher probability and credibility, and decrease with the higher return rate.
