Research On Motorized Infantry Brigade Training Funds Allocation Base On Efficiency

This thesis take the motorized infantry brigade as an example; analyze the problems and difficulties in the allocation of army training funds, indicating the urgent needs and the major significance of a reasonable allocation of army training funds. The allocation of army training funds is the common problem of various institutions and organizations. This thesis collects the current literatures and summarizes the theories and methods of funds allocation, and analyzes the disadvantages of these theories and methods'application in army.This thesis proposes the fight efficiency-centered army training index, based on the concept of efficiency-centered theory. The allocation of army training funds should be linked with the training efficiency, according to this idea, the efficiency-centered funds allocation model of motorized infantry brigade is built up. The general efficiency function is consisted of fight factor, breadth factor and consistency factor, which considers the current and long-term allocation of funds. It is a multi-level, multi-objective nonlinear integer programming model.First, after an integrated analysis, a combat evaluation index is built up, which include soft and hard power. These two powers are consisted of information index, command capability index, firepower index, mobility & protection index and logistics indexes. The AHP model is used to determine the five factors'weight, and then the normalization of five different indexes is taken. We take the weighted sum of indexes as the measure of fight effectiveness of each sub-unit.Secondly, in order to ensure integrated fight ability, each sub-unit of the brigade should have the appropriate training funds. This thesis introduces the concept of the breadth factors; take the breadth of training funds as the second target. It reflects the long-term planning considerations. The penalty factor function is introduced to achieve the breadth of training funds.Thirdly, in order to maintain the consistency of motorized infantry brigade's training funds and the approbation of sub-units'training fund applications, the object of consistency is proposed in this thesis, which means the final allocation should match the number allocated in previous years and the number of sub-units'applications as much as possible. The deviation of training funds is used to measure the consistency factor. Finally, the linear weighting method is used to convert the above three objectives into a single objective integer programming problem, and solving it with the LINGO software.This model is applied to the training funds allocation of a certain motorized infantry brigade. Based on the model's result, the recommendations to party committee of this brigade are proposed.
