Abstract

My model solves the problem of pallet loading problem with the limition of weight bearing. Model one calculate the number for two kinds of boxes putting in the pallet without overlap, which can make the best use of the pallet. Using Integer programming, I choose an arbitrary rectangular area in the lower left corner of the pallet, where I place box X in it. Secondly, I divide the left area into two part B and C in the way of transverse or vertical cutting, where I put box Y in these two parts. Set the maximum residual using area as constraint, the minimum excess stock as the objective function. Model two consider the uniformity stress of pallet which influence the position of each box. Let the distance between equivalent center of gravity of boxes and center of gravity of pallet stands for the level of uniformity stress. As different box has different weight which makes impact on the uniformity stress, so I define modified parameter A to correct our equation. With the result gotten in model one, I can calculate the gravity position for each boxes using nonlinear programming.
