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.Englishinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessWarehouse design, aisle design, unit-load, single-command operationsPOLICIES, STORAGE, AISLESUnit-loadWarehouse DesignAisle DesignSingle-Command OperationsArticle
