Emergency Service Vehicle Location Problem with Batch Arrival of Demands
In this paper an emergency service vehicle (ESV) location problem has been considered in which it is assumed that each emergency call may require more than one ESV. In ESV location problem two factors should be known; the location of stations and the number of ESVs at each station. Hence, a nonlinear mixed integer programming model is presented in order to maximize the total response rate to th...
متن کاملExtensions to emergency vehicle location models
This paper is concerned with extending models for the Maximal Covering Location Problem in two ways. First, the usual 0-1 coverage definition is replaced by the probability of covering a demand within the target time. Second, once the locations are determined, the minimum number of vehicles at each location that satisfies the required performance levels is determined. Thus, the problem of ident...
متن کاملNonlinear Optimal Control Techniques Applied to a Launch Vehicle Autopilot
This paper presents an application of the nonlinear optimal control techniques to the design of launch vehicle autopilots. The optimal control is given by the solution to the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation, which in this case cannot be solved explicity. A method based upon Successive Galerkin Approximation (SGA), is used to obtain an approximate optimal solution. Simulation results invo...
متن کاملTechnical Note - Approximating Vehicle Dispatch Probabilities for Emergency Service Systems with Location-Specific Service Times and Multiple Units per Location
To calculate many of the important performance measures for an emergency response system one requires knowledge of the probability that a particular server will respond to an incoming call at a particular location. Estimating these “dispatch probabilities” is complicated by four important characteristics of emergency service systems. We discuss these characteristics and extend previous approxim...
متن کاملA taxonomy for emergency service station location problem
The emergency service station (ESS) location problem has been widely studied in the literature since 1970s. There has been a growing interest in the subject especially after 1990s. Various models with different objective functions and constraints have been proposed in the academic literature and efficient solution techniques have been developed to provide good solutions in reasonable times. How...
