Designing emergency response networks for hazardous materials transportation
Undesirable consequences of dangerous goods incidents can be mitigated by quick arrival of specialized response teams at the accident site. We present a novel methodology to determine the optimal design of a specialized team network so as to maximize its ability to respond to such incidents in a region. We show that this problem can be represented via a maximal arc-covering model.We discuss two...
متن کامل“A DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS TRANSPORTATION AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE MANAGEMENT” Prof
The hazardous materials risk management process involves a set of crucial logistical decisions referring to the planning of the hazardous materials transportation and the organization of the emergency response operations. The objective of this paper is to present a Decision Support System for hazardous Materials Transportation Risk Management that covers integrated hazardous materials distribut...
متن کاملA ROUTING METHODOLOGY FOR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS TRANSPORTATION TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ROAD NETWORK
Abstract: The shipments of hazardous materials (HAZMATs) induce various risks to the road network. Today, one of the major considerations of transportation system managers is HAZMATs shipments, due to the increasing demand of these goods (because it is more used in industry, agriculture, medicine, etc.), and the rising number of incidents that are associated to hazardous materials. This paper ...
متن کاملCapacitated Network Design with Uncertain Demand
We consider a capacity expansion problem arising in the design of telecommunication networks. The problem is to install capacity on links of the network so as to meet customer demand while minimizing total costs incurred. When studying this and related problems it is customary to assume that point to point demands are given. This will not be the case in practice, however, since future demand is...
متن کاملInternet protocol network design with uncertain demand
This paper is a case study concerning the design and dimensioning of the IP (internet protocol) network of TDC, the largest Danish network operator. Due to historical reasons the number of IP POPs (points of presence) in the network has reached a level, believed to be too high. To point out potential IP POPs for dismantling, we consider a network planning problem concerning dimensioning of the ...
