چکیده
We give a polynomial time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the unit demand capacitated vehicle routing problem (CVRP) on trees, entire range of tour capacity. The result extends to splittable CVRP.

A novel heuristic algorithm for capacitated vehicle routing problem
The vehicle routing problem with the capacity constraints was considered in this paper. It is quite difficult to achieve an optimal solution with traditional optimization methods by reason of the high computational complexity for large-scale problems. Consequently, new heuristic or metaheuristic approaches have been developed to solve this problem. In this paper, we constructed a new heuristic ...
متن کاملOn Capacitated Vehicle Routing
We consider the capacitated vehicle routing problem (VRP): a fixed fleet of delivery vehicles of uniform capacity must service at minimal transit cost from a common depot known customer demand for a single commodity. This problem is modeled as a side-constrained traveling salesman problem (TSP). Among the additional constraints are the vehicle capacity restrictions, analogous to TSP subtour eli...
متن کاملModeling and Solving the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem on Trees
Capacitated vehicle routing problems (CVRPs) form the core of logistics planning and are hence of great practical and theoretical interest. This chapter considers the CVRP on trees (TCVRP), a problem that often naturally arises in railway, river, and rural road networks. Our objective is to build high-quality models that exploit the tree structure of the problem that can also be easily implemen...
متن کاملCapacitated Trees , Capacitated Routing , and Associated
We study the polyhedral structure of two related core combinatorial problems: the subtree cardinalityconstrained minimal spanning tree problem and the identical customer vehicle routing problem. For each of these problems, and for a forest relaxation of the minimal spanning tree problem, we introduce a number of new valid inequalities and specify conditions for ensuring when these inequalities ...
متن کاملOn the capacitated vehicle routing problem
We consider the Vehicle Routing Problem, in which a fixed fleet of delivery vehicles of uniform capacity must service known customer demands for a single commodity from a common depot at minimum transit cost. This difficult combinatorial problem contains both the Bin Packing Problem and the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) as special cases and conceptually lies at the intersection of these two ...
