Virtual production planning of a high-speed train using a discrete event simulation based approach

摘要: This paper deals with an application of Discrete Event Simulation (DES) within the manufacturing process a high-speed train. Today, use DES tool is common for supporting engineers in designing production lines and planning production, representing valid help what-if analyses measurement or validation solution. In this research activity, differently from use, it has been developed model whose function not to measure and/or validate solution problem, but generate that will be nearly optimum. describes tools, methodology used work, built, case-study obtained results.
