For any business, inventory system takes a monumental part. Keep this aspect in mind, we formulate multi-objective displayed EPQ model consider with non-instantaneous deteriorating things where production depends on demand and variable demand pattern depends on display self-space, selling price and frequency of advertisement of the item. The customers are more attracted to buy an item by observing self-space, selling price and advertisement. Imperfect materials are now and again come back to providers for a discount or credit. Here price discount is available for deteriorated and defective items. Holding cost varies with time where shortages are allowed and fully backlogged. Fuzzy environment touches the reality instead of the crisp environment. So, we assumed the cost components as Triangular Fuzzy Numbers and Nearest Interval Approximation Method is used to defuzzify the model. Finally, numerical examples as well as  sketches are given to illustrate the model.

In real supply chain environments, the discontinuous multidelivery policy is often used when finished products need to be transported to retailers or customers outside the production units. To address this real-life production-shipment situation, this study extends recent work using an economic production quantity- (EPQ-) based inventory model with a continuous inventory issuing policy, defective items, and machine breakdown by incorporating a multiple delivery policy into the model to replace the continuous policy and investigates the effect on the optimal run time decision for this specific EPQ model. Next, we further expand the scope of the problem to combine the retailer’s stock holding cost into our study. This enhanced EPQ-based model can be used to reflect the situation found in contemporary manufacturing firms in which finished products are delivered to the producer’s own retail stores and stocked there for sale. A second model is developed and studied. With the help of mathematical modeling and optimization techniques, the optimal run times that minimize the expected total system costs comprising costs incurred in production units, transportation, and retail stores are derived, for both models. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the applicability of our research results.

This paper discusses an Economic Production Quantity model for Weibull deteriorating items over an infinite time horizon under fuzzy environment. Fuzziness is introduced by allowing the cost components such as setup cost, production cost, holding cost, shortage cost and opportunity cost due to lost sales to certain extent. Triangular fuzzy numbers are used to represent the mentioned costs. Optimum policies of the described models under fuzzy costs are derived. The proposed model can be extended in several ways. For instance, the deterministic demand function to stochastic fluctuating demand patterns could be considered. The model could also be generalized to allow for quantity discounts, as well as permissible delay in payments.

The inventory system has been drawing more intrigue because this system deals with the decision that minimizes the total average cost or maximizes the total average profit. For any farm, the demand for any items depends upon population, selling price and frequency of advertisement etc. Most of the model, it is assumed that deterioration of any item in inventory starts from the beginning of their production. But in reality, many goods are maintaining their good quality or original condition for some time. So, price discount is availed for defective items. Our target is to calculate the total optimal cost and the optimal inventory level for this inventory model in a crisp and fuzzy environment. Here Holding cost taken as constant and no-shortages are allowed. The cost parameters are considered as Triangular Fuzzy Numbers and to defuzzify the model Signed Distance Method is applied. A numerical example of the optimal solution is given to clarify the model. The changes of different parameters effect on the optimal total cost are presented and sensitivity analysis is given.JEL Classification: C44, Y80, C61Mathematics Subject Classification: 90B05

The most popular inventory model to determine production lot size is Economic Production Quantity (EPQ). It shows enterprise how to minimize total production cost by reducing inventory cost. But, three main parameters in EPQ which are demand, machine set up cost, and holding cost, are not suitable to solve issues nowadays. When an enterprise has two types of demand, continue and discrete demand, the basic EPQ would be no longer useful. Demand continues comes from a customer who wants their needs to be fulfilled every time per unit time, while the fulfillment of demand discrete is at a fixed interval of time. A literature review is done by writers to observe other formulation of EPQ model. As there is no other research can be found which adopt this topic, this study tries to develop EPQ model considering two types of demand simultaneously.

Extensive research has been devoted to economic production quantity (EPQ) problem. However, no attention has been paid to problems where unit production and set-up costs must be considered as functions of production rate. In this paper, we address the problem of determining the optimal production quantity and rate of production in which unit production and set-up costs are assumed to be continuous functions of production rate. Based on the traditional economic production quantity (EPQ) formula, the cost function associated with this model is proved to be nonconvex and a procedure is proposed to solve this problem. Finally, utility of the model is presented using some numerical examples and the results are analyzed.

AbstractIn this current era, the concept of nonlinearity plays an important and essential role in intuitionistic fuzzy arena. This article portrays an impression of different representation of nonlinear pentagonal intuitionistic fuzzy number (PIFN) and its classification under different scenarios. A new de-intuitification technique of non-linear PIFN is addressed in this article along with its various graphical representations. Additionally, in this paper, we have observed this by applying it in an economic production quantity model where the production is not perfect and defective items are produced which are reworked. The model is considered under learning and forgetting, where learning is considered as linear, nonlinear PIFN and crisps arena. It is observed from the numerical study that high learning effects in rework lead to decrease in production of defective item, which, besides an economic advantage, may have a positive effect on the environment. Even though forgetting has an adverse effect, the average total cost is much less than that of the basic model which ignores worker learning and forgetting. Finally, comparative and sensitivity analysis result shows the utility of this noble work.

The classical economic production quantity (EPQ) model assumes that items produced are of perfect quality and the production rate is constant. However, production quality depends on the condition of the process. Due to process deterioration or other factors, the production process may shift and produce imperfect quality items. These imperfect quality items sometimes can be reworked and repaired; hence, overall production-inventory costs can be reduced significantly. In addition, it can be found in practice that the time or cost required to repetitively produce a unit of a product decreases when the number of units produced by a worker or a group of workers increases. Under this circumstance, the unit production cost cannot be regarded as constant and, therefore, cannot be ignored when taking account of the total cost. This paper incorporates the effects of learning and the reworking of defective items on the EPQ model since they were not considered in existing models. An optimal operation policy that minimizes the expected total cost per unit time is derived. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the proposed model. In addition, sensitivity analysis is performed and discussed.

Determining the optimal replenishment lot size and shipment policy for a production setup has been of greater interest during the last few years. This paper derives the optimal replenishment lot size and shipment policy for an Economic Production Quantity (EPQ) model with rework of defective items. However, in a real life situation, multi-shipment policy is used in lieu of continuous issuing policy and generation of defective items is inevitable. The proposed research assume that all imperfect quality items are reworked to perfect quality items and then all perfect quality items are delivered to the customers. Mathematical modeling is used in this study and the long-run average production–inventory-delivery cost function is derived. Convexity of the cost function is proved by using the Hessian matrix equations. The closed-form optimal replenishment lot size and optimal number of shipments that minimize the long-run average costs for such an EPQ model are derived.
