A Single-Product Multi-Period Inventory Routing Problem under Intermittent Demand

open access: yesInformation, 2023
Demand fluctuations and uncertainty bring challenges to inventory management, and intermittent demand patterns increase the risk of inventory backlogs and raise inventory holding costs.

Dual-Sourcing Inventory Routing Problem with Route-Dependent Lead Times in Rolling Horizon Framework

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Traditional inventory routing problems ignore the time consumption in transportation. In this paper, an inventory routing problem with air–land transportation and route-dependent lead times is studied.

Heuristic Sequence Selection for Inventory Routing Problem [PDF]

open access: yesTransportation Science, 2020
In this paper, an improved sequence-based selection hyper-heuristic method for the Air Liquide inventory routing problem, the subject of the ROADEF/EURO 2016 challenge, is described. The organizers of the challenge have proposed a real-world problem of inventory routing as a difficult combinatorial optimization problem.

Genetic Algorithm Approach for the Inventory Routing Problem with Backlogging [PDF]

open access: yes
We consider a multi-period inventory-routing problem where a vendor serves multiple geographically dispersed customers who receive units of a single product from a depot with adequate supply.

Distribution planning in a weather-dependent scenario with stochastic travel times: a simheuristics approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In real-life logistics, distribution plans might be affected by weather conditions (rain, snow, and fog), since they might have a significant effect on traveling times and, therefore, on total distribution costs.

Inventory routing problems with multiple customers [PDF]

open access: yesEURO Journal on Transportation and Logistics, 2013
This tutorial aims at introducing the class of inventory routing problems by explaining its relations with the most classical routing problems and the reasons why the IRP are important and worth of investigation. We present and discuss the basic problem of this class, where one vehicle only is available.

An improved genetic algorithm for optimizing total supply chain cost in inventory location routing problem

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2019
Integrating inventory, location, and routing decisions in supply chains may considerably impact their performance. In this paper, the Inventory Location Routing Problem (ILRP) is considered while adopting the Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) strategy.
