Resil-TEX – Resilient plant layout model for MSMEs with a focus on productivity and occupational safety

General Objective: Build a resilient plant distribution model (Resil-TEX) for textile MSMEs with a focus on productivity and occupational safety.

Specific objectives

  • Identify appropriate indicators for the resilient design of plant distribution that allow adjusting textile production processes to external and internal criteria through a qualitative-documentary research approach, the result of which will be a technical report and the set of indicators at the conceptual level during the first four months of the project.
  • Create a resilient plant distribution model (Resil-TEX) of the textile sector that supports the identified indicators, the result of which will be the proposed conceptual model and a scientific article with the description of the elements of the model worked between the fifth and eighth month of the project. .
  • Adapt the proposed model to two case studies of the textile sector using simulation and optimization tools. The development of qualitative and quantitative relational information gathering tools is required, as well as the application of simulation and optimization techniques, and additionally, a scientific article will be reported on the total experience of the project during the last four months of it.
