the location-routing problem is a relatively new branch of logistics system. its objective is to determine a suitable location for constructing distribution warehouses and proper transportation routing from warehouse to the customer. in this study, the location-routing problem is investigated with considering fuzzy servicing time window for each customer. another important issue in this regard ...

in this study the location routing problem with fuzzy parameters is taken into account, this problem involves determining the location of the depots and routing of the vehicles in order to serve the customers. in this study a location routing problem with fuzzy travel times and due dates is considered and two objective models are proposed. the considered objectives are minimizing the total cost...

Using Greedy Clustering Method to Solve Capacitated Location-Routing Problem with Fuzzy Demands Abstract In this paper, the capacitated location routing problem with fuzzy demands (CLRP_FD) is considered. In CLRP_FD, facility location problem (FLP) and vehicle routing problem (VRP) are observed simultaneously. Indeed the vehicles and the depots have a predefined capacity to serve the customerst...

An integrated model considers all parameters and elements of different deficiencies in one problem. This paper presents a new integrated model of a supply chain that simultaneously considers facility location, vehicle routing and inventory control problems as well as their interactions in one problem, called location-routing-inventory (LRI) problem. This model also considers stochastic demands ...

We present a general framework for modeling routing problems based on formulating them as a traditional location problem called the Capacitated Concentrator Location Problem. We apply this framework to two classical routing problems: the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem and Inventory-Routing Problem. In the former case, the heuristic is proven to be asymptotically optimal for any distributio...

A traditional logistics decision model mainly studies the location of distribution centers, storage inventory management, vehicle scheduling, and transportation routes. The location-inventory-routing problem (LIRP) is an integrated optimization three problems—a comprehensive for whole system. This review paper uses PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews Meta-Analysis) method to li...
