Electric vehicle routing problems can be particularly complex when recharging must performed mid-route. In some applications such as the e-commerce parcel delivery truck routing, however, mid-route may not necessary because of constraints on capacities and maximum allowed time for delivery. this study, we develop a mixed-integer optimization model that exactly solves time-constrained capacitate...

The purpose of this article is to model and solve an integrated location, routing and inventory problem (LRIP) in cash-in-transit (CIT) sector. In real operation of cash transportation, to decrease total cost and to reduce risk of robbery of such high-value commodity. There must be substantial variation, making problem difficult to formulate. In this paper, to better fit real life applications ...

The Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) is a NP – Complete problem and according to this definition there is no exact solution for it. So researchers try to achieve a near optimum solution for it, by using meta – heuristic algorithms. The aim of CVRP is to find optimum route for every vehicle as a sequence of customers, that vehicle served. We employ Particle Swarm Optimization to solve ...
