Description
Summary:A mixed-flow human–machine collaborative disassembly line balancing problem is introduced, considering the various recycling methods for waste products and the relationship between the attributes of each product part and the corresponding disassembly operator. The problem aims to optimize the number of workstations, balance the idle time, and minimize the disassembly cost. To address this, an Improved Artificial Fish Swarming Algorithm (IAFSA) was designed based on the combination of the problem characteristics, and the IAFSA algorithm was applied to a mixed-flow television (TV) disassembly example and compared with two different algorithms. The solution shows that the proposed algorithm optimizes the proposed algorithm by 14.3%, 52.3%, and 9.8%, respectively, on the three objectives. Finally, the performance of the three algorithms is compared using Non-dominant rate (NR) and Generation distance (GD) metrics.
