ME 6720 - Manufacturing Optimization

Institution:

Clemson University

Subject:

Mechanical Engineering

Description:

Identification, modeling and formulation of linear and network optimization models of manufacturing processes. Examination of network models that arise in manufacturing, energy, transportation and logistics: minimum cost flow models in transportation, shortest path problems, and maximum flow models. Deterministic and stochastic systems, as well as the effects of nonlinear and integer constraints, are considered. Students are expected to have computer programming experience (Excel, Matlab or equivalent). Credit will be given for only one of IE 6460 or ME 6720.
