Mathematical Model Optimization & Analysis
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I have a case study and these are the questiosn related to the case study
Questions
1. Construct a mathematical model to solve the above optimization problem and create
the network diagram. Critically explain each part of the model by including limitations or
assumptions. Support your answer with two scientific articles published.
2. Solve the mathematical model by using Solver Tool. Include screenshots of the model
showing the objective function, the optimal solution, and the constraints. Discuss the
solution.
3. Based on the solution from Question 2. critically evaluate the impact of the following
events on the solution:
a. The production managers in Abu Dhabi and Dubai sites decided to increase the
annual production capacity to reach 125,000 units in order to accommodate for the
increase in demand.
b. Examine the impact of the Mid-West region demands reduction to 44,000 hydraulic
accumulators
c. In some business environments, it may not be ideal to use a linear programming (LP)
model for solving management related problems. Propose management scenarios
that may require non-linear optimization models in order to reach a management
decision. Use three or more scientific articles to support your answer.
These are the report/research strcuture and things to be followed.
