Service facility allocation – an optimization

In the bustling city of Rio de Janeiro, opening and operating a series of barbershops comes with a unique set of challenges, especially when operating on a tight budget for renovation and rental expenses. In this article, I am sharing…

Warehouse receiving process simulation

A warehouse receiving process simulation study was conducted for bottleneck detection and resolution, applying the SCDA pallet receival simulator. The simulation study modelled various warehouses with different pallet receival processes and directly impacted warehouse process adjustments, contract management, and capacity-related…

Visualization of SimPy parking lot simulation results

I recently shared a Python simulation modeling example using SimPy in Python. Using SimPy, a discrete-event simulation library available in Python, I modeled a parking lot with a defined amount of slots and a defined car arrival process. In this…

SimPy parking lot simulation modeling example

I wanted to expand on my series of SimPy examples for supply chain and manufacturing simulation. In this article I show how you can model a parking lot in Python, using SimPy. SimPy is a discrete-event simulation modeling library in…

Truck haulage simulation animation in Python

In this article I will share a discrete-event simulation animation example in Python. More specifically a truck haul transport simulation animation for a mine, using SimPy and DesViz in Python. This example, and the DesViz module, was developed by Prof.…
