TY - JOUR AU - Hajeeh, Mohammed A. PY - 2010 TI - Mathematical Model for Waste Reduction in Aluminum Fabrication Industry in Kuwait JF - Journal of Mathematics and Statistics VL - 6 IS - 2 DO - 10.3844/jmssp.2010.110.115 UR - https://thescipub.com/abstract/jmssp.2010.110.115 AB - Problem statement: Waste generation in the aluminum industry throughout the fabrication processes in Kuwait. Approach: A mathematical model has been developed to analyze the fabrication process and a special heuristic is designed for solving the model. The model uses actual data presented from an Aluminum Fabrication Industry (AFI). Results: Reduced the amount of waste generated substantially during the process. Conclusion/Recommendations: Considerable savings in waste generated can be realized by using scientific approaches through mathematical modeling.
