    The problem of stock cutting takes an important place in the steel industry, as it is in many sectors. It is desired to ensure a minimum amount of waste in every manufacturing factory. Reaching the minimum level of waste reduces the costs of factories and companies and strengthens the possibility of making profits. In this way, it is ensured that our resources are used correctly in our developing world. In this study, the Cutting Stock Problem has been handled, in order to minimize the amount of waste within the scope of the complete the study and to solve this problem. In this study, first of all, the size of the steel to be used in line with the customer's request, the process of taking the steel plates from the stock and the molds of the parts to be cut are prepared by the production planning department, and these operations are carried out with the program used in the factory. Then the dies are sent to the workshop for cutting, where they are cut. Before creating the model, the data of the molds made for the previous cut are collected. In order to create the correct mathematical model, the data are collected by making simultaneous measurements at the cutting table. The cutting Stock Problem is used to formulate the molds prepared for cutting and the amount of waste loss is calculated. Determined parameters and constraints GAMS software is used to create a mathematical model using the GAMS MIP (Mixed Integer Programming) method and then analyze the created model. As a conclusion, we investigated 3 different scenarios. According to those experiments, the study with the proposed scenario can achieve a better production line especially about time and waste amount. Those developments can be important earnings for a real production line.

    Monthly Logistics Planning for a Trading Company
    (Springer-Verlag Singapore Pte Ltd., 2022) ÜLKÜ, İLAYDA; KULLAB, HUTHAYFAH; AL MULQI, TALHA; ALMSADI, ALI; ABOUSALEH, RAED
    In this study, the transportation problem is considered in order to minimize the total traveling distance between the nodes. The nodes represent the hospitals and the warehouse. The data is obtained by Salem Trading Company (STC) that operates in various medical sectors including Urology, Gynecology, Endoscopy, Surgery, and other operations. STC has two types of vehicles; the big vehicle and the small vehicle. The big vehicle is used for the machines and it contains up to 4 machines. Whereas, the small vehicle is used for delivering the masks and gloves and its capacity is up to 200 boxes. In order to serve all the market need, they currently have a traditional logistics plan to ship products from the main warehouse to the Hospitals located in Qatar. In this study, there are two stages proposed to solve the transportation problem. In the first stage, the assignment problem is used to determine the unused capacity of each vehicle used. Then, the output of the first stage is used as an input in the second stage in order to apply the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP). With this second stage, the optimal routes are obtained with the minimum cost. Firstly, the required data will be obtained from the company, which include the number of hospitals, the demand of each hospital, the capacity of the vehicles, the distance between hospitals and the warehouse, loading and unloading time of the vehicle, and the volume of the products. This study focus on finding the low-cost weekly logistics plan for hospitals in Qatar. Two mathematical models are developed to solve the problem with GAMS software. As a result, by using the assignment and VRP model, the unused capacity is increased from 38 to 18 and reduce the cost from 2470 TL to 1170 TL as in Qatar the cost of the fuel is not high, also on the time restriction is focused.
