How to build a simple AGV charging model for warehousing and manufacturing
Automated guided vehicles are widely used in manufacturing and warehousing to move items around. A simple example model combines various AnyLogic libraries and modeling approaches to simulate the AGV charging process. Read through and don’t forget to open the model in AnyLogic software to follow along with the example.
Using simulation to explain the Wealth Gap in the world
There is a significant and growing wealth gap in almost every country throughout the world. There are many reasons for this growing inequality amongst the population, but can a combination of simulation and luck play a part in identifying how to stop this trend or even reverse it?
Prepare your business for uncertainty and unforeseen events
Managing under uncertainty is not easy, especially when you’re facing new realities that have never been experienced before. How can you do proper forecasting for your business without relevant historical data? Simulation is the tool to help you with that.
Healthcare simulation: from hospital design to mass vaccination
Healthcare simulation shows hospitals’ capacity and resource utilization, helps identify challenges, and leads to the right solutions based on the analysis of test results. Simulation modeling was frequently and successfully used during COVID-19 for evaluating disease spread and mass vaccination. Read in this blog post how simulation is used to accomplish healthcare-related tasks.
Revolving doors for better pedestrian flow management
Revolving doors are the perfect solution for modern day living. They allow for the movement of people in and out, while maintaining the ideal climate inside the building. See how easy it is to make the most of a revolving door using AnyLogic simulation software.
Urbanism: how AnyLogic can help build superior cities
Urban design projects presented as physical models usually look nice and detailed, but when implemented they may reveal unexpected problems. Even if such models match the actual layouts, some dynamic factors that may affect the design get left out. Using simulation, you can consider the dynamics, which gives you a more complete picture of the system's performance over time.
Solving the Bin Packing Problem in warehousing and logistics – strategy comparison
When packing a container, every square inch of empty space is a money loss – either for you or your company. In warehousing and logistics, filling a container with items as tight to each other as possible to reduce the number of containers is a big deal. Decision Lab took it upon themselves to identify what techniques would help make packing quicker and more efficient. Read to learn more about the project and its results.
