Euclidean Hub-and-Spoke Networks
The hub-and-spoke distribution paradigm has been a fundamental principle in geographic network design for more than 40 years. One of the primary advantages that such networks possess is their ability to exploit economies of scale in transportation by aggregating network flows through common sources. In this paper, we consider the problem of designing an optimal hub-and-spoke network in continuo...
متن کاملOn the Hub-and-spoke Model with Arc Capacity Conatraints
In this paper, we present a new formulation of one-stop capacitated hub-and-spoke model as a natural extension of the uncapacitated one-stop model. The model involves arc capacity constraints as well as hub capacity constraints, which enables us to incorporate some practical factors into the model. We also present a branch-and-bound based exact solution method with Lagrangian relaxation boundin...
متن کاملHub-and-spoke Free Trade Areas
Hub-and-Spoke Free Trade Areas* This paper analyzes how the sequential formation of free trade areas affects the volume of trade between member countries. In a three--country, three-good model, if two countries have a free trade area, and both sign a similar agreement with the third, trade between the two decreases, and welfare rises in both. However, if only one of them signs an FTA with the t...
متن کاملComparison of Marital Satisfaction in Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
Alternative kidney treatments, including renal transplantation, hemodialysis (HD), and peritoneal dialysis (PD), are administered when severe kidney failure occurs and the kidney can no longer function. The present study compares different dimensions of marital satisfaction in HD and PD patients so as to assist physicians and patients in choosing their appropriate treatment. This cross-se...
متن کاملA passenger demand model for air transportation in a hub-and-spoke network
This paper develops an air passenger model that deals with city-pair demand generation and demand assignment in a single framework. Using publicly available and regularly collected panel data, the model captures both time series and cross-sectional variation of air travel demand. The empirical analysis finds that pattern of correlations among alternatives can be described by a three-level neste...
