Modular Capacitated Maximal Covering Location Problem for the Optimal Siting of Emergency Vehicles
To improve the application of the maximal covering location problem (MCLP), several capacitated MCLP models were proposed to consider the capacity limits of facilities. However, most of these models assume only one fixed capacity level for the facility at each potential site. This assumption may limit the application of the capacitated MCLP. In this article, a modular capacitated maximal coveri...
متن کاملAn exact Method for Stochastic Maximal Covering Problem of Preventive Healthcare Facilities
Effective preventive healthcare services have a significant role in reducing fatality and medical expenses in all human societies and the level of accessibility of customers to these services can be considered as a measure of their efficiency and effectiveness. The main purpose of this paper is to develop a service network design model of preventive healthcare facilities with the principal obje...
متن کاملImpact of Capacity of Mobile Units on Blood Supply Chain Performance: Results from a Robust Analysis
Background and Objectives: A sudden jump in blood demand during natural disasters may have strong negative impact on the performance of blood supply chain. Appropriate response to emergency situations requires predictive approach to determining the optimal allocation of blood supply chain resources for various disaster scenarios. The present study, thus, presents an optimization model aimed at ...
متن کاملA Fuzzy Model for the Multiobjective Emergency Facility Location Problem with A-Distance
This paper proposes a new multiobjective location problem for emergency facilities, e.g. ambulance service stations and fire stations. In the problem, one of the objectives is to minimize the maximal distance of the paths from the located emergency facilities to hospitals via accidents. The other is to maximize the frequency of accidents that the emergency facilities can respond quickly. An int...
متن کاملA SAIWD-Based Approach for Simultaneous Reconfiguration and Optimal Siting and Sizing of Wind Turbines and DVR units in Distribution Systems
In this paper, a combination of simulated annealing (SA) and intelligent water drops (IWD) algorithm is used to solve the nonlinear/complex problem of simultaneous reconfiguration with optimal allocation (size and location) of wind turbine (WT) as a distributed generation (DG) and dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) as a distributed flexible AC transmission systems (DFACT) unit in a distribution sys...
