SIMULATION
Creating a model of a real or proposed system for the purpose of evaluating the systems
behavior for various conditions.
Allows the analyst to draw inferences about new systems without building them or ake
changes to existing systems without disturbing them.
The only tool that will allow system interactions (System integration) to be analyzed.
Permits managers to visualize the operation of a new or existing system under a variety of
conditions.
Understand how various components interact with each other and how they effect overall
system performance.
WHY SIMULATE?
Provide genera insight into the nature of a process.
Identify specific problems or problem areas within a system.
Develop specific policies or plans for a process.
Test new concepts and/or systems prior to implementation.
Improve the effectiveness of a system
Provide an insurance policy for system performance.
SIMULATION
cannot optimize It can only describe the results of what if questions
Cannot give accurate results if the data are inaccurate.
Cannot describe system characteristics that have not been explicitly modeled.
cannot solve problems. it can only provide information.
Cannot provide easy answers to complex problems.

2. Understanding the Simulation Package

Concepts and Terminologies
ENTITIES
Entities represent any person, object or thing, whether real or imaginary, whose movement
through
Examples:
the
system
Customers

parts
moving
through a factory.
ATTRIBUTES
With in a system, there may be many types of entities, each having a unique characteristics
called attributes.
Page 4
2014-15
Attributes represent user defined values associated with individual entities, such as customer
type. product size, time job entered the system etc.
All entities have the same set of attributes (priority, arrival time etc.) with different values.
An assignment made to an entitys attribute affects only that entity.
VARIABLES
A set of changeable values characterizing The components of the system as a whole, not the
characteristics of individual entities
Two types: user variables and system variables
User variables are defined (named) by the modeler and can be changed during the simulation
run (within the model or interactively).
Examples: Arrival rate, current inventory, number of patients registered, etc.
System variables are predefined characteristics of model components that provide the system
state.
Examples: No of entities waiting in a queue (NQ) or current value of a counter (NC)
STATIONS
Arena approaches the modeling of systems by dividing them into sub system locations or
stations.
Stations are used to represent processing areas of the systems being modeled.
Stations:
Make the modeling effort more manageable
Provide a framework for the control of entity flaw.
Provide a means to model entity movement .Example: a machining area, service counter, a
warehouse etc.
RESOURCES
A resource is one or more identical
The number of identical resource units corresponding to a specific resource is called the
resource capacity.
Page 5
2014-15
Resources may be used to represent people. machines floor space etc

Resources may be defined as stationary or positional
Entities seize resources to get control of one or more units of the resource
Entities release resources when they are no longer required
QUEUES
Waiting areas for entities whose movement through the system has been suspended due to
the system status.
Example: a caller waits in a queue to be processed by a customer service operator.
ROUTES
The movement of entities from one station to another.
Routing assumes that time may be required to move the entity between stations, but it assumes
that no additional delay will be incurred because of unavailable constraints, such as material
handling devices

4. Building simulation models for manufacturing operations (Electronic assembly

With Basic templates)
This system represents the final operations of the production of two different sealed electronic
units. The arriving parts are cast metal cases for the units that have already been machined to
accept the electronic parts.
The first Unit, named Part A are produced in an adjacent department, outside the bounds
of this model, with inter arrival times to our model being exponentially distributed with a mean
of 5 minutes. Upon arrival they are transferred to the Part A Prep area with a transit time of 2
minutes. At the Part A Prep area, the mating faces of the cases are machined to assure a good
seal.
And the part is then deburred and cleaned; the process time for the combined operation
follows a triangular (1,4,8 ) distribution, The part is then transferred to the sealer, with a transit
time of 2 minutes.
The Second units named part B, are Produced in a different building outside this
Models bounds where they are held until a batch of 4 units is available; the batch is then sent
to the final production area we are modeling. The time between the arrivals of successive
batches of part B to our model is exponential with a mean of 30 minutes. Upon arrival at the
part B Prep area, the batch is separated into the four units, which are produced individually.
The processing at the Part B Prep area has the same three steps as at the Part A prep area except
that the process time for the combined operation followed a triangular (3,5,10). Distribution.
The part is then sent to the sealer, with a transit time of 2 minutes.
At the sealer operation, the electronic components are inserted, the case is assembled
and sealed, and the sealed unit is tested. The total process time for this operation depends on
the Part type; Triangular (1,3,4) for Part A and weibull (2.5,5.3) for Part B (2.5, is the mean
and 5.3 is the standard deviation) Ninety one Percent of the parts pass the inspection and are
transferred directly to the shipping department. The remaining parts are transferred to the
rework area where the parts are disassembled, repaired, cleaned, assembled and re-tested.
Eighty percent of the parts here are salvaged and transferred to the shipping department as
rework parts, The remaining part are transferred to the Scrap area. The time to rework a part
follows an exponential distribution with a mean of 45 minutes and is independent of part type
or part status, salvaged or scarped. Assume all transfer times are 2 minutes.
(It is required to collect the statistics in each area on resource utilization, number in
queue, time in queue, the cycle time (or Flow time0 by shipped parts, salvaged parts, or scraped
parts. Initially run the simulation for 2000 minutes.)
Page 9

5. Building simulation models for manufacturing operations (Electronic assembly With

Common templates)
The System to be modeled consists of Part arrivals, 4 manufacturing cells and part departures.
Cell 1,2 & 4 ach have a single machine and Cell 3 has got 2 machines. The 2 machines at cell
3 are not identical; one of them is newer model that can process parts in 805 of the required by
the older machine. The system produces 3 part types, each visiting a different sequence of
stations. The part steps and process times are given below;
Part Type

2014-15
All process times are triangularly distributed; The process time given at Cell 3 are of the older
machine.
The inter arrival times between successive part arrivals (all types combined) are
exponentially distributed with a mean of 13 minutes. The distribution by type is 26% Part 1;
48% Part 2 and 26% Part 3. Parts enter from left and exit at right, and move only in a clockwise
direction through the system. Time to move between any 2 cells is 2 minutes. Model the System
using Arena and collect the statistics on resource utilization, time and number in queue, as well
as cycle time ( time in system from entry to exit) by part type. Run the simulation for 2000
minutes.
6. Building simulation models for manufacturing operations with transport System

Simulate a simple processing system which consists of a drilling machine and the processing
tie varies according to Triangular distribution of minimum 1, value 3 and maximum 6. The
Part enters the system with a random exponential value of 5 minutes, and then leaves the
system. All time units are in minutes. Animate the resource and queue. Simulate the process
for 20 minutes. Plot the number waiting at the drill center queue and number busy at the drill
press. Report the simulation run statistics.
Add a second machine to which all the parts go immediately after exiting the first
machine for a separate kind of processing (Rewash). Processing ties at the second machine are
the same as for the first machine. Gather all the statistics as before, plus the time in queue,
queue length and utilization at the second machine.
Immediately after the second machine, there is a pass/fail inspection that takes a
constant 5 minutes to carry out and has an 80% chance of passing result; Queuing is possible
at inspection, and the queue is first in and first out. All parts exit the system regardless of
whether they pass the test. Count the number that fail and the number that pass, and gather
statistics on the time in queue, queue length and utilization at the inspection center. Run the
simulation for 480 minutes.
In the above exercise, suppose that parts that fail inspection after being washed are sent
back ad rewashed, instead of leaving, such rewashed parts must then undergo the same
Page 11
2014-15
inspection and the same probability of failing. There is no limit on how many times a given
part might have to loop back through the waster. Run this model under the same conditions
and compare the results for the time in queue length and utilization at the inspection center.

Travellers arrive at the main entrance door of an airline terminal according to an
exponential inter-arrival time distribution with mean 1.6 minutes. The travel time from the
entrance to the check-in is distributed uniformly between 2 and 3 minutes. At the check-in
counter, travelers wait in a single line until one of five agents is available to serve them.
The check-in time follows a weibull distribution with parameters = 7.76 and = 3.91.
Upon completion of their check-in, they are free to travel to their gates. Create a simulation
model, with animation, of this system. Run the simulation for 16 hours to determine the
average time in system, number of passengers completing check-in, and the average length
of the check-in queue.

10. Building simulation Models for Banking service ( Bank teller problem-Multi
channel)
Customers arrive at the Bank and enter a queue to wait for the single teller. When the customer
reaches the teller, he performs his transaction. When the initial transaction is completed, the
teller determines if the customer must see the supervisor. If this is the case the customer moves
to the single supervisor. When finished, the customer returns to the teller queue to redo his
transaction. If the customer is not required to see the supervisor, he leaves the bank.
The time between customer arrivals is exponentially distributed with a mean of 5 minutes.
The travel times from the entrance to the teller queue and from the teller to the exit are both 1
minute. All teller transaction times are normally distributed with a mean of 3 minutes and
standard deviation of 1. 10% of the customers are required to see the supervisor. It is possible
for a customer to see the supervisor several times. Travel times to and from the supervisor takes
1.5 minutes and the supervisor time follows a triangular distribution (12,15,20).
Collect statistics on the teller and the supervisor utilization, customer flow time and number
in the teller queue. Run the simulation for an 8.5 hours a day.

In the above exercise, suppose that parts that fail inspection after being washed are sent
back ad rewashed, instead of leaving, such rewashed parts must then undergo the same
inspection and the same probability of failing. There is no limit on how many times a given

Problems for Practice:

1. Simulate a simple processing system which consists of a drilling machine and the
processing time varies according to Triangular distribution of minimum 1, value 3 and
maximum 6. The part enters the system with a random exponential value of 5 minutes.
And then leaves the system. All time units are in minutes. Animate the resource and
queue. Simulate the process for 20 minutes. Plot number waiting at drilling center
queue and number busy at drill press. And report the following data
The average total time in the system (part) and
Utilization of drill press
The last part number which entered the system
Number of parts which leaves the system
Average and maximum number of parts in process (wip)
Make 5 replications of the above simulation. And observe the changes in output.
Tabulate the readings.
2. Simulate a simple processing system which consists of a drilling machine and the processing
time varies according to Triangular distribution of minimum 1, value 3 and maximum 6. The
part enters the system with a random exponential value of 5 minutes. After exiting the first
machine the parts go for a separate kind of processing (rewash). Processing times at the second
machine are the same as for the first machine. After processing at 2 machine the part leaves the
system. All time units are in minutes. Gather all statistics:
The average total time in the system (part)
Utilization of drill press and utilization at the second machine
Number of parts which leaves the system
Time in queue, queue length.
Animate the resource and queue.
Plot number waiting at drilling center queue and number busy at drill press &
rewash.
Run the simulation for 480 minutes

3.Simulate a simple processing system in which The part enters the system with a random
exponential value of 5 minutes. The part moves to a drilling machine and the processing time
varies according to Triangular distribution of minimum 1, value 3 and maximum 6.
After
exiting the first machine the parts go for a separate kind of processing (rewash). Processing
times at the second machine are the same as for the first machine. Immediately after the second
machine, theres a pass fail inspection that takes a constant 5 minutes to carry out and has an
80% chance of passing result; queuing is possible at inspection, and the queue is first in and
first out. All parts exit the system regardless of whether they pass the test. All time units are in
minutes.
Gather all statistics:
Utilization of drill press, at second machine, at inspection center
Count number that fail and number that pass
Add plots to track the queue length and number busy at all three stations.
4. Simulate a simple processing system which consists of a drilling machine and the processing
time varies according to Triangular distribution of minimum 1, value 3 and maximum 6. The
part enters the system with a random exponential value of 5 minutes. After exiting the first
machine the parts go for a separate kind of processing (rewash). Processing times at the second
machine are the same as for the first machine. Immediately after the second machine, theres a
pass fail inspection that takes a constant 5 minutes to carry out and has an 80% chance of
passing result; queuing is possible at inspection, and the queue is first in and first out. The parts
that fail inspection after being washed are sent back and rewashed, instead of leaving; such rewashed parts must then undergo the same inspection, and have the same probability of failing.
Theres no limit on how many times a given part might have to loop back through the washer.
All parts exit the system regardless of whether they pass the test. All time units are in minutes.

5. Simulate a simple processing system in which the part enters the system with a random
exponential value of 5 minutes. The part moves to the drilling machine and the processing time
varies according to Triangular distribution of minimum 1, value 3 and maximum 6.
After
exiting the first machine the parts go for a separate kind of processing (rewash). Processing
times at the second machine are the same as for the first machine. Immediately after the second
machine, theres a pass fail inspection that takes a constant 5 minutes to carry out and queuing
is possible at inspection, and the queue is first in and first out. The inspection can result in one
of the three outcomes; pass (probability 0.8) fail (probability 0.09) and rewash (probability
0.11). Failures leave immediately, and rewashes loop back to the washer. The above
probabilities hold for each part undergoing inspection, regardless of its past history. All time
units are in minutes.
