    Optimal unit-load warehouse designs for single-command operations
    (TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2012) Omer Ozturkoglu; Kevin R. Gue; Russell D. Meller; Meller, Russell D.; Öztürkoǧlu, Ömer; Gue, Kevin R.
    We present a continuous space model for travel in a unit-load warehouse that allows cross-aisles and picking aisles to take on any angle. The model produces optimal designs for one two and three-cross-aisle warehouses which are called chevron leaf and butterfly designs. We then use a more accurate discrete model to show which designs are best for a wide range of warehouse sizes. We show that the chevron design which is new to theory and to practice is the best design for many industrial applications.
