The need to make effective plans for locating transportation hubs is of increasing importance in the megaregional area, as recent research suggests that growing intercity travel demand affects efficiency a system. This paper investigates hierarchical facility location problem passenger network. aim study determine locations hub facilities at different levels and distribute demands these with mi...

In this paper the capacitated hub location problem is formulated by a minimax regret model, which takes into account uncertain setup cost and demand. We focus on hub location with multiple allocations as a strategic problem requiring one definite solution. Investigating how deterministic models may lead to sub-optimal solutions, we provide an efficient formulation method for the problem. A comp...

The hierarchical hub covering facility location problems are applied to distribution systems, transportation, waste disposal, treatment services, emergency services and remote communication. The problems attempt to determine the location of service providers' facilities at different levels and specify their linking directions in order to reduce costs and to establish an appropriate condition in...
