Workshop Layout Optimization Based on Genetic Algorithm with MATLAB Implementation

MATLAB source code for workshop layout optimization using genetic algorithms. Workshop layout optimization involves strategically arranging processing equipment, material handling systems, work units, and aisle corridors within a limited production space. This model represents a nonlinear continuous optimization problem with complex constraints that can be effectively solved using genetic algorithms. The code implementation includes chromosome encoding for layout configurations, fitness evaluation based on material flow efficiency, and genetic operators for solution evolution.
