Abstract: | The purpose of this research is to develop two manpower supply planning models and a solution algorithm for mass rapid transit
carriage maintenance under mixed deterministic and stochastic demands. These models are formulated as mixed integer programs
that are characterized as NP-hard. We employ problem decomposition techniques, coupled with the CPLEX mathematical programming
solver, to develop an algorithm that is capable of efficiently solving the problems. The models and the method used currently
in actual operations are evaluated by a simulation-based evaluation method. Finally, we perform a case study using real operating
data from a Taiwan MRT maintenance facility. The preliminary results are good, showing that the models could be useful for
planning carriage maintenance manpower supply. |
