A Nonlinear Integer Programming Model for Integrated Location, Inventory, and Routing Decisions in a Closed-Loop Supply Chain

open access: yesComplexity, 2018
Facility location, inventory management, and vehicle routing are three important decisions in supply chain management, and location-inventory-routing problems consider them jointly to improve the performance and efficiency of today’s supply chain ...

A Memetic Algorithm for the Inventory Routing Problem [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Heuristics, 2021
Abstract In this paper, we investigated an Inventory Routing Problem (IRP) with deterministic customer demand, in a two-tiered supply chain. The supply chain network consists of a supplier who uses a single vehicle with a given capacity to deliver a single type of product to many customers.

An inventory location routing model with environmental considerations

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
In this work we consider an integrated Inventory Location Routing problem ILRP. The objective is to select depots to open, the routes to perform distribution from the capacitated depots to the clients by a homogeneous fleet of vehicles and over a multi ...

Modelling and comparison of stability metrics for a re-optimisation approach of the Inventory Routing Problem under demand uncertainty

open access: yesEURO Journal on Transportation and Logistics, 2021
The inventory routing problem (IRP) is an optimisation problem that integrates transportation and inventory management decisions. When subjected to unexpected events such as demand changes, the a posteriori approach consists in re-optimising including ...

A modified adaptive genetic algorithm for multi-product multi-period inventory routing problem

open access: yesSustainable Operations and Computers, 2022
Recent developments in urbanization and e-commerce have pushed businesses to deploy efficient systems to decrease their supply chain cost. Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) is one of the most widely used strategies to effectively manage supply chains with ...

Inventory Routing Problem with Facility Location [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We study problems that integrate depot location decisions along with the inventory routing problem of serving clients from these depots over time balancing the costs of routing vehicles from the depots with the holding costs of demand delivered before they are due.

Multi-objective Dual-Sale Channel Supply Chain Network Design Based on NSGA-II [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
[[abstract]]In this study, we propose a two-echelon multi-objective dual-sale channel supply chain network (DCSCN) model. The goal is to determine (i) the set of installed DCs, (ii) the set of customers the DC should work with, how much inventory each DC
