A Set Covering Reformulation of the Pure Fixed Charge Transportation Problem
The pure fixed charge transportation problem is reformulated into an equivalent set covering problem with, in general, a large number of constraints. Two constraint generation procedures for its solution are suggested; in both of these, new constraints are generated by the solution of ordinary maximum flow problems. In the first procedure, which is an optimizing Benders-type scheme, each set co...
متن کاملOn approximation of the fully fuzzy fixed charge transportation problem
In the literature hardly any attention is paid to solving a fuzzy fixed charge transportation problem. In this paper, we consider the fully fixed-charge transportation problem and try to find both the lower and upper bounds on the fuzzy optimal value of such a problem in which all of the parameters are triangular fuzzy numbers. To illustrate the proposed method, a numerical example is presented.
متن کاملElectromagnetism-like Algorithms for The Fuzzy Fixed Charge Transportation Problem
In this paper, we consider the fuzzy fixed-charge transportation problem (FFCTP). Both of fixed and transportation cost are fuzzy numbers. Contrary to previous works, Electromagnetism-like Algorithms (EM) is firstly proposed in this research area to solve the problem. Three types of EM; original EM, revised EM, and hybrid EM are firstly employed for the given problem. The latter is being firstl...
متن کاملLagrangian Relaxation Method for the Step fixed-charge Transportation Problem
In this paper, a step fixed charge transportation problem is developed where the products are sent from the sources to the destinations in existence of both unit and step fixed-charges. The proposed model determines the amount of products in the existing routes with the aim of minimizing the total cost (sum of unit and step fixed-charges) to satisfy the demand of each customer. As the problem i...
متن کاملSolving the Fixed Charge Transportation Problem by New Heuristic Approach
The fixed charge transportation problem (FCTP) is a deployment of the classical transportation problem in which a fixed cost is incurred, independent of the amount transported, along with a variable cost that is proportional to the amount shipped. Since the problem is considered as an NP-hard, the computational time grows exponentially as the size of the problem increases. In this pape...
