Box: 15875-4413, Tehran, Iran [email protected], [email protected] Abstract In the current paper we have investigated the capacitated distance constraint vehicle routing problem for the standard approximation algorithm. This problem consists of a number of different types of vehicles at the depot which differ at their capacity, cost and maximum distance bound. We have designed an approximation algorithm for this problem in the case that the tours are balanced.

Stochastic Approach to Vehicle Routing Problem: Development and Theories
Stochastic Approach to Vehicle Routing Problem: Development and Theories Abstract In this article, a chance constrained (CCP) formulation of the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is proposed. The reality is that once we convert some special form of probabilistic constraint into their equivalent deterministic form then a nonlinear constraint generates. Knowing that reliable computer software...

The Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP), a famous problem of operation research, holds a central place in combinatorial optimization problems. In this problem, a fleet vehicles with Q capacity start to move from depot and return after servicing to customers in which visit only ones each customer and load more than its capacity not at all. The objective is to minimize the number of used vehicles and t...

This paper addresses the Vehicle Routing Problem with Delivery Time Cost. This problem aims to find a set of routes of minimal total costs including the travelling cost and delivery time cost, starting and ending at the depot, in such a way that each customer is visited by one vehicle given the capacity of the vehicle to satisfy a specific demand. In this research, a hybrid metaheuristic approa...
