one of the important issues in transportation and logistics systems is vehicle routing problem (vrp). the vehicle routing problem is concerned with finding efficient routes of minimum total cost, beginning and ending at a central depot, for a fleet of vehicles to serve a number of customers. on the other hand, as a result of the increasing environmental concerns, economic problems and pressure ...

the study was undertaken with the objectives to: (1) study the present status of plastic waste management and the existing phnom penh household willingness and their influence factors to segregate plastics for recycling and reuse (plastics & non plastics); (2) study how other cities encouraged and obtained the participation of their population in plastics recycling and reuse and (3) recommend w...

design of a logistics network in proper way provides a proper platform for efficient and effective supply chain management. this paper studies a multi-period, multi echelon and multi-product integrated forward-reverse logistics network under uncertainty. first, an efficient complex mixed-integer linear programming (milp) model by considering some real-world assumptions is developed for the inte...

The fourth party logistics which acts as a new role will increasingly play more and more important functions. In this paper, for a given deformation problems of 4PL providers’ evaluation, We builds up a fourth party logistics evaluating indicator system based on four factors, which are quality, technical abilities, collaboration and price. Besides, we studies the analysis methods of grey correl...

the environmental rules of reverse logistic networks have caused important economic growth in the past decades. to integrate forward logistic networks with reverse logistics networks a helpful method is to design both networks simultaneously. considering more retrieval choices in modeling reverse logistic systems can be very critical. this article contains a mixed integer linear programming mod...
