In this paper, we present a novel multi-objective mathematical model for capacitated single allocation hub location problem. There are the vehicle capacity constraint and capacity restrictions amount of the incoming flow to the hub while the balancing requirements of incoming quantities of flow to the each hub is considered. Moreover, there is a set of available capacities for each potential hu...

The increasing demand for multimodal freight transportation makes the expansion of new secondary hubs necessary. carbon tax has also received attention from various sectors due to development requirements green transportation. Therefore, this study proposed a transport hub location problem, where emissions are specifically considered achieve strategic planning. A mixed integer non-linear progra...

In this paper, we introduce a new hub-and-spoke structure for service networks based on round-trips as practiced by some transport providers. This problem is variant of Uncapacitated Hub Location Problem wherein the spoke nodes allocated to hub node form (cycles) starting from and ending node. motivated two real-life practices in logistics runaway connections with their associated economies sca...

Hubs are critical elements of transportation networks. Location of hubs and allocation of demands to them are of high importance in the network design. The most important purpose of these models is to minimize the cost, but path reliability is also another important factor which can influence the location of hubs. In this paper, we propose a P-center hub location model with full interconnection...

In this paper, we present an effective solution using the genetic algorithm for the uncapacitated single allocation hub location problem (USAHLP). This solution was published before, but today it still gives the really effective results, although there are many studies have been done after it. We also make an application using this method and present the performance results of this method.

This paper presents a dynamic (or multi-period) hub location problem. It proposes a branch-and-bound algorithm that uses a Lagrangean relaxation to obtain lower and upper bounds at the nodes of the tree. The Lagrangean function exploits the structure of the problem and can be decomposed into smaller subproblems which can be solved efficiently. In addition, some reduction procedures based on the...

In many logistic systems for less than truckload (LTL) shipments, transportation of goods from one origin to its destination is made through collection tours to a hub and delivery tours from the same or another hub, while the goods are shipped between two hubs using Full Truckload (FTL) shipments. Therefore, managers need to determine the location of the hubs, the allocation of non-hub nodes, a...

We investigate a variant of the many-to-many hub location-routing problem which consists in partitioning the set of nodes of a graph into routes containing exactly one hub each, and determining an extra route interconnecting all hubs. A variable neighborhood descent with neighborhood structures based on remove/add, swap and exchange moves nested with routing and location operations is used as a...
