Zusammenfassung:In this paper, the energy-efficient flow shop scheduling problem with blocking and collision-free transportation constraints (EFSP-BCFT) with sequence dependent setup times (SDST), scheduling of automated guided vehicles (AGV), transportation speed control and battery management is investigated. An enhanced multi-objective ant colony algorithm (EMOACA) is developed to minimize makespan and total energy consumption simultaneously. Several enhancement techniques including a novel low-high resolution search strategy, an effective AGV dispatching heuristic information and critical-path-based energy reduction improvement procedure are proposed. Extensive experiments spanning various scenarios of the problem are conducted and computational results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method and enhancements to obtain high quality solutions compared to standard and state- of-the-art metaheuristics. The results also showcase the significance of considering transportation speed control, battery management and AGV idle power consumption in the modelling of the problem where better system performance can be achieved both in terms of shorter schedules and smoother transportation flow. •EFSP-BCFT is investigated to simultaneously optimize makespan and total energy consumption.•Conflict-free constraints, transportation speed control and battery management of AGVs are considered.•An enhanced algorithm named EMOACA is proposed.•A deep analysis of the different problem characteristics is provided.•The proposed approach is validated through various computational experiments.
