Map-based charting in R (leaflet.minicharts)

In this article I will create map-based charts in R, using the leaflet.minicharts package in R. I already introduced leaflet for creating markers on maps and for visualizing spatial distributions with density heatmaps. In this blog post I create barcharts, […]

Top 10 AutoCAD automations in Python

My fellow SCDA member, Tanmay Sawant, and I have developed a considerable amount of documentation covering AutoCAD automatization in Python. It is available on this blog in the form of various blog posts. In this article I want to point […]

Crane yard simulation in AnyLogic

This blog post describes a simple crane yard simulation in AnyLogic. I developed this model in AnyLogic for demonstration purposes. I have already published a series of blog posts on simulation modeling in AnyLogic. Below is a list of some […]

Conveyor routing simulation in AnyLogic

Having introduced AnyLogic with various smaller examples on this blog I here post a summary of a simulation model example published on The AnyLogic Modeler. I show how AnyLogic can be used for assessing conveyor layout variants. You can find […]

Conveyor system optimization procedure

I want to show how you can optimize a conveyor system with a combination of mathematical modeling and discrete-event simulation (DES). This is an addition to the rich variety of conveyor optimization examples available in industry. However, as I will […]

AGV simulation of part routings in AnyLogic

In this article I present a simple AGV simulation model. It is meant as an example on how to simulate part routings in a factory. I implemented the simulation in AnyLogic. I have provided some other basic introductions to AnyLogic […]

Simulation-based capacity planning

In this article I summarize a strategic simulation-based capacity planning project that I executed years ago. I present one of my earliest material flow simulation projects that resulted in 7% CAPEX reduction, $1.7m reduced investment need and 21% faster lead […]

Discrete-event simulation procedure model

Many of my peers in the past thought simulation to be a tool, an exercise, or an animation. But discrete-event simulation is actually much more than that. Discrete-event simulation is a process. Its execution should follow a procedure model. This […]

Backlog simulation of FIFO production

In this brief example I implement a simmer backlog simulation, using discrete-event simulation. As a matter of fact free simulation tools can provide a strong support. In my opinion free tools can replace many of the commercial discrete-event simulation licenses […]

Machine learning and discrete-event simulation

In this article I discuss machine learning and discrete-event simulation. I will introduce machine learning as a supportive technology for making discrete-event simulation more resource efficient and effective. Discrete-event simulation is a technique used in manufacturing and logistics for problems […]
