MEDINA-PALOMERA, A; MONTALVA-SUBIRATS, J. M e HOSPITALER-PEREZ, A.. A descriptive analysis of quantitative indices for multi-objective block layout. Ing. Investig. [online]. 2013, vol.33, n.1, pp.71-75. ISSN 0120-5609.
Layout generation methods provide alternative solutions whose feasibility and quality must be evaluated. Indices must be used to distinguish the feasible solutions (involving different criteria) obtained for block layout to identify s solution's suitability, according to set objectives. This paper provides an accurate and descriptive analysis of the geometric indices used in designing facility layout (during block layout phase). The indices studied here have advantages and disadvantages which should be considered by an analyst before attempting to resolve the facility layout problem. New equations are proposed for measuring geometric indices. The analysis revealed redundant indices and that a minimum number of indices covering overall quality criteria may be used when selecting alternative solutions.
