Abstract

A logistic park is a delimited domain having a large space to efficiently organize, manage, and ship goods at a low cost. The facility layout problem in a logistics park is concerned with determining the proper physical organization of a number of related functional areas (FAs). In practical planning, transportation organization is an important consideration, placing the FAs on the plot that best fits it. However, there are few researches based on transport, and the traditional SLP method is increasingly unsuitable for the large-scale development of Logistics parks. Considering this, this study proposes an accessibility-diversity-based method and FA-parcel matching model. Given that the facility layout problem in a logistics park is NP-complete, a heuristic approach of genetic algorithm is presented. A real-world case study is given to test this method. The results show that the both proposed method and solution approach are effective and efficient.
