Description

Multi-load AGVS deadlock prevention task scheduling method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of automatic guided vehicle systems, in particular to a multi-load AGVS anti-deadlock task scheduling method.

The method is used for solving a plurality of problems such as guide path network design, task scheduling, traffic management, path planning and the like when the AGVS planning design and the optimization control are performed. The AGVS task scheduling is always a hotspot in the research field of AGVS, and a plurality of scheduling algorithms exist, but a plurality of scheduling algorithms take the traditional single-load AGVS as a research object. In recent years, the multi-load AGVS has received wide attention from industry and academia due to the advantages of strong single-vehicle transportation capability, low traffic jam rate and the like.
The existing multi-load AGVS task scheduling problem does not consider the constraint of the number of trailers that can be accommodated by each workstation. This constraint belongs to the buffer capacity constraint and has been demonstrated in the study of single load AGVS: ignoring the constraint causes a system deadlock phenomenon, and finally, the effectiveness of a scheduling rule is lost, which is a key and difficult problem to be solved when AGVS task scheduling is performed. The triggering condition of the AGVS deadlock phenomenon is closely related to the material distribution flow and the application environment. The existing research on the first type of deadlock takes single-load AGVS under the application environment of a job shop as a research object, and at present, research reports on the phenomenon of the first type of deadlock of multi-load AGVS are not yet seen. Aiming at the multi-load AGVS material distribution flow under the complex product assembly manufacturing application environment, the deadlock phenomenon triggering condition is ascertained, and a corresponding deadlock avoidance strategy is designed and integrated into the multi-load AGVS task scheduling method.
Therefore, the invention provides a multi-load AGVS anti-deadlock task scheduling method.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
Although decision variables of the multi-load AGVS task scheduling problem facing vehicle assembly and manufacture are more, the basic purpose is to ensure sufficient auxiliary materials of all assembly stations, so that the invention combines the advantages of an intelligent optimization algorithm and heuristic scheduling rules, and provides a multi-load AGV deadlock prevention task scheduling method with station feeding sequence optimized as an entry point, and the whole flow is shown in figure 1. Firstly, generating a station feeding sequence scheme set through a constructed heuristic generation rule of the station feeding sequence, and taking the station feeding sequence scheme set as part of individuals in an initial population of an intelligent optimization algorithm; then, an intelligent optimization algorithm is used as a main control optimization flow, and new station material supplementing sequence populations are continuously evolved.

the maximum remaining time for waiting and stopping production is as follows:
wherein: for the station W i The number of auxiliary materials at the time t, wherein t is 0 and represents the current time; and xi is the production beat of the vehicle assembly line.
The constraint conditions are as follows:

firstly, determining a ranking level of an individual, wherein the probability delta (r) of the ranking level r of the individual being selected is as follows:
δ(r)=δ(1)ρ (r-1)
wherein: ρ is a probability factor, and the value range is: 0< ρ <1; delta (1) is the probability that an individual of rank 1 is selected, which needs to be calculated from the highest rank max (r) of the non-dominated ordering of the population and the probability factor ρ, as follows:
δ(1)=(1-ρ)/[(1-ρ max(r) )]
the method can ensure that the lower the individual sorting level is, the higher the sorting probability is, and the sum of the sorting probabilities of all the sorting levels is 1.
And secondly, sorting all individuals of the sorting level r according to the crowdedness of the individuals, and determining the selected individuals by adopting a roulette method.
The schematic diagram of the crossover operator is shown in fig. 4, assuming that two Parent individuals are respectively Parent1 and Parent2, two crossover positions Pos1 and Pos2 are randomly selected, the station sequences between the crossing points of Parent1 are rearranged according to the sequence of the station sequences in Parent2, and the rearranged Parent1 is used as Child individual Child.
(2) Mutation operator
An example of mutation operation is shown in fig. 5, in which two crossing positions are randomly selected and two position codes are exchanged, the mutated individual needs to be verified whether it appears in the parent population, and if the individual appears in the parent population, the crossing and mutation operation needs to be performed again.
Race evolution mechanism

performing neighborhood search operation on individuals with ranking level 1, and performing neighborhood search operation on any one of individuals with ranking level 1Station codes of two positions are arbitrarily exchanged to obtain a neighborhood individual of the individual, and the length of the chromosome is N B Is a member of the group consisting of N B ×(N B -1)/2 neighborhood individuals;
randomly generating N P Decoding and evaluating each neighborhood individual, ifIf the non-dominant individual is governed by a certain neighborhood individual, the individual is directly updated to be a better neighborhood individual so as to accelerate the non-dominant individual to converge towards a better direction; non-dominant sorting is carried out on candidate population after neighborhood searching, and the optimal N is selected P Individuals constitute a new generation of populations.
Compromise strategy
And the decoding scheduling scheme corresponding to the individual realizes AGVS scheduling. Such as: in order to avoid the assembly line from entering a production stopping state due to material waiting, the productivity of the assembly line is improved, and an individual with the longest residual time from the production stopping in the non-dominant front (Pareto front) can be selected. In order to reduce the path and time of executing tasks by the AGVS and improve the operation efficiency of the AGVS, an individual with the shortest task path in the non-dominant front (Pareto front) can be selected.
