An initiative by the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at the University of Toronto, the Centre for Research in Healthcare Engineering (CRHE), was in response to the immediate and compelling desire for efficiency and quality improvements in the Canadian healthcare system.
The County of Stockholm (Sweden), like any country or region, experiences a continuous need to handle the healthcare necessities of various patient groups. Each group can be seen as a subpopulation, with its own distinctive traits, characteristics, and challenges. The discussed simulation project focused on the dialysis patients, a group who needs to visit caregiving facilities frequently.
Evans & Peck used AnyLogic software to simulate port berth capacity. The goal was to find out how much additional product could pass through the port without upgrading it.
The volume of cargo traffic in Russian ports quadrupled during the period from 2000 to 2016. The growth of cargo traffic led to the need to build new modern terminals. Another challenge, in this regard, was the choice between the creation of new terminals and the modernization of the existing ones. The managing company of Novorossiysk Sea Port planned to expand the existing trading terminal, so that, in the future, its capacity would increase to 1.2 million tons per year. For project implementation, the managing company hired an engineering company, Morstroytechnologiya, to devise maritime...
Automation Intelligence, together with Noorjax Consulting, worked on improving the parcel sorting system. Tilt tray sorters are commonly used in parcel sorting, distribution, order fulfillment centers, and baggage handling. Thanks to the AnyLogic simulation model, the parcel sorting system’s throughput was increased by minimizing parcel recirculation.
Diageo is a British multinational alcoholic beverages company. Diageo Russia is one of Russia’s top five wholesale alcoholic beverage distributors, which is traditionally a low margin business where the bottom line is sensitive to the customer service level and high logistics costs. Diageo sought assistance from the consulting company Amalgama, LLC when they experienced an increase in sales volume, but failed to realize larger profits due to logistics costs per unit.
With AnyLogic simulation software as the centerpiece, NASSCO utilizes a custom-built analysis system called the Large Scale Computer Simulation Modeling System for Shipbuilding (LSMSe) to provide highly detailed and accurate capacity analyses for both current production and potential new work.
The managers of one of the most important Italian yacht manufacturers needed a new, intelligent approach that would make the planning process simpler. The objective was to give the real production planner exceptionally rich planning information, which would allow the person to test and refine a plan before its implementation.
Manufacturing and economic conditions are so complicated and unstable that it makes traditional scheduling methods ineffective. A major Eastern European steel pipe manufacturing plant decided to improve production planning using simulation software. In addition, the company wanted to minimize gaps and daily fluctuations of the orders handover, identify bottlenecks, and improve order routes.
Evans & Peck was involved in multi-purpose harbour design planning. The company utilised a discrete event simulation modeling approach to map the transportation, warehousing, and loading to ships of product.
