Optimal design of mobile phone packing box considering logistics

Abstract

The thesis has proposed a formulation for the optimization model of mobile phone packing box wall structure reducing packaging logistics costs. Nowadays, mobile phone box optimization models mainly focus on improvement of internal buffer packaging materials. Based on these optimization models, a novel optimization model is proposed to optimize the structure of mobile phone box wall. As a result, optimization model, as the prerequisite, decreases the utilization rate of raw materials to reduce the total costs. The result of study also shows that an optimal thickness of mobile phone box can be obtained using different materials with proposed model, and this reduces the total cost of logistics packaging system as well. Numerical simulation shows the relationship of mobile phone box volume and the mass of packaging box under different external force. It can be a reference for the study of mobile phone box in logistics system in the future.
