چکیده

Inspired by long-distance road transport in industrial logistics China, this paper studies a simultaneous loading scheduling and vehicle routing problem over multi-workday planning horizon. Industrial cargo often requires specialized facilities, these facilities vary performance quantity are subject to available time constraints. Consequently, achieving coordinated optimization of becomes significant challenge practice. We describe the studied as multi-trip with windows resource synchronization on heterogeneous facilities. First, we develop mixed integer programming model setting minimize total travel distance number vehicles. Moreover, three-phase heuristic approach is developed. An initial solution constructed using sequential strategy first phase, then an adaptive large neighbourhood search post-optimization procedure based ejection chains are, respectively, designed optimize two hierarchical objective functions. Finally, extensive computational experiments conducted demonstrate effectiveness proposed method. Specifically, research results indicate that scenarios, expanding horizon from single workday period could significantly reduce operational costs improve service quality.

Competitive Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows and Stochastic Demands

The competitive vehicle routing problem is one of the important issues in transportation area. In this paper a new method for competitive VRP with time windows and stochastic demand is introduced. In the presented method a three time bounds are given and the probability of arrival time between each time bound is assumed to be uniform. The demands of each customer are different in each time wind...

A tabu search for Time-dependent Multi-zone Multi-trip Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows

We propose a tabu search meta-heuristic for the Time dependent Multi-zone Multi-trip Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows. Two types of neighborhoods, corresponding to two decision sets of the problem, together with a strategy controlling the selection of the neighborhood type for particular phases of the search, provide the means to set up and combine exploration and exploitation capabili...

A multi-criteria vehicle routing problem with soft time windows by simulated annealing

This paper presents a multi-criteria vehicle routing problem with soft time windows (VRPSTW) to mini-mize fleet cost, routes cost, and violation of soft time windows penalty. In this case, the fleet is heterogene-ous. The VRPSTW consists of a number of constraints in which vehicles are allowed to serve customers out of the desirable time window by a penalty. It is assumed that this relaxation a...
