This work introduces the Green Vehicle Routing Problem (GVRP). The GVRP is an extension of the well-known vehicle routing problem (VRP). Moreover, the GVRP includes an objective function that minimizes weighted distance. Minimizing weighted distance reduces fuel consumption and consequently CO2 emissions. Therefore, the GVRP is more environmentally friendly than traditional versions of the VRP....

over the two last decades, distribution companies have been aware of the importance of paying attention to the all aspects of a distribution system simultaneously to be successful in the global market. these aspects are the economic, the environmental, the social and the safety aspects. in the vehicle routing problem (vrp) literature, the economic issue has often been used, while the environmen...

a significant portion of gross domestic production (gdp) in any country belongs to the transportation system. transportation equipment, in the other hand, is supposed to be great consumer of oil products. many attempts have been assigned to the vehicles to cut down greenhouse gas (ghg). in this paper a novel heuristic algorithm based on clark and wright algorithm called green clark and wright (...

Over the two last decades, distribution companies have been aware of the importance of paying attention to the all aspects of a distribution system simultaneously to be successful in the global market.

The Generalized Vehicle Routing Problem (GVRP) is an extension of the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) defined on a graph in which the nodes (customers, vertices) are grouped into a given number of mutually exclusive and exhaustive clusters (nodesets). In this paper, an integer linear programming formulation of the GVRP with O(n 2 ) binary variables and O(n 2 ) constraints is presented. It is show...

In this paper, we study a rich vehicle routing problem incorporating various complexities found in real-life applications. The General Vehicle Routing Problem (GVRP) is a combined load acceptance and generalised vehicle routing problem. Among the real-life requirements are time window restrictions, a heterogeneous vehicle fleet with different travel times, travel costs and capacity, multi-dimen...

The effects of greenhouse gas (GHG) on the weather has caused ever-increasing disasters around the world. Many countries are making significant efforts to reduce GHG emissions in all industrial sectors. In this study, a green vehicle routing problem (GVRP) has been formulated as a nonlinear integer programming problem to minimize GHG emissions, considering various realistic factors that include...

Green vehicle routing problem (GVRP) aims to consider greenhouse gas emissions reduction, while the vehicles. It can be either through adopting Alternative Fuel Vehicles (AFVs) or with existing conventional fossil fuel vehicles in fleets. GVRP also takes into account environmental sustainability transportation and logistics. We critically review several variations specializations of address iss...

Nowadays, one of the areas in field vehicle routing problems that have received a lot attention is Green Vehicle Routing Problem (GVRP). GVRP aims to harmonize financial aspects and environmental concerns while vehicles. This research takes case study at PT. LISA CONCRETE INDONESIA company engaged concrete industry with various precast products. One company's main products U-Gutter which record...

This paper develops an MILP model, named Satisfactory-Green Vehicle Routing Problem. It consists of routing a heterogeneous fleet of vehicles in order to serve a set of customers within predefined time windows. In this model in addition to the traditional objective of the VRP, both the pollution and customers’ satisfaction have been taken into account. Meanwhile, the introduced model prepares a...
