<p style='text-indent:20px;'>The initial period after the earthquake is prime time for disaster relief. During this period, it of great value to rationally locate transfer facilities relief materials and effectively arrange transportation materials. Considering characteristics two-level emergency logistics system including uncertain demand, time, multiple varieties materials, shortage sup...

This paper deals with multiobjective bi-level linear programming problems under fuzzy environment. In the proposed method, tentative solutions are obtained and evaluated by using the partial information on preference of the decision-makers at each level. The existing results concerning the qualitative analysis of some basic notions in parametric linear programming problems are reformulated to s...

this paper presents a multi-objective linear programming model for disaster blood supply chain in some periods of time after disaster. this model assist to determine the quantity and location of facilities and also how to allocate blood to facilities. in this study, a three-level model is described, while blood is collected from temporary and permanent facilities and sent to blood center. blood...

This paper proposes a hierarchical hybrid particle swarm optimization (PSO) and differential evolution (DE) based algorithm (HHPSODE) to deal with bi-level programming problem (BLPP). To overcome the shortcomings of basic PSO and basic DE, this paper improves PSO and DE, respectively by using a velocity and position modulation method in PSO and a modified mutation strategy in DE. HHPSODE employ...

There are different decision levels with distinct makers in a decentralized Supply Chain, for example, shippers and carriers. Nevertheless, most studies conducted considering only one decision-making level. The carrier is the agent Dynamic Vehicle Allocation (DVA) problem allocates vehicles to maximize its profit, usually delaying shipping. It necessary respect partnership principle. This paper...

nowadays, the environmental impact of transportation project and, especially air pollution impacts, are major concerns in evaluating transportation projects. based on this concern, beside definition of traditional objective functions like total travel time and total investment cost, different type of environmental related function is considered as objective function in urban network design. in...

in this paper, shortest path design problem (spdp) in which the path is incident to all cells is considered. the bi-directional path is one of the known types of configuration of networks for automated guided vehi-cles (agv).to solve this problem, two algorithms are developed. for each algorithm an integer linear pro-gramming (ilp) is determined. the objective functions of both algorithms are t...
