Vehicle routing problem with deliveries and pickups: Modelling issues and meta-heuristics solution approaches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The paper investigates a class of extensions to the vehicle routing problem. Different problem versions – some well-known, some more recent – are explained and placed in a taxonomy. A central focus of the paper is on the assumptions generally made in

A conceptually simple algorithm for the capacitated location-routing problem

open access: yesEURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2023
Location-routing problems (LRPs) jointly optimize the location of depots and the routing of vehicles. The most studied LRP variant, the capacitated LRP (CLRP), has been addressed by a large number of metaheuristic approaches.

The location routing problem with facility sizing decisions [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, 2022
AbstractThe location routing problem (LRP) integrates operational decisions on vehicle routing operations with strategic decisions on the location of the facilities or depots from which the distribution will take place. In other words, it combines the well‐known vehicle routing problem (VRP) with the facility location problem (FLP).

A Case Study for a Location-Routing Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In contrast to the classical location-allocation models, the location-routing problem (LRP) integrates vehicle routing and scheduling aspects in the location planning process. A survey and classification scheme of location-routing is e.g. proposed by [3] and [2]. This paper presents a LRP of a company which distributes finished cars.

A deterministic tabu search algorithm for the capacitated arc routing problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The capacitated arc routing problem (CARP) is a difficult optimisation problem in vehicle routing with applications where a service must be provided by a set of vehicles on specified roads.

Location-Routing models and methods for Freight Distribution and Infomobility in City Logistics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this thesis two City Logistics problems have been tackled. The first is a design problem for a two-echelon freight distribution system. The aim is to define the structure of a system optimizing the location and the number of two different kinds of ...

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 ...

Effective metaheuristics for the latency location routing problem

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, 2023
AbstractThe latency location routing problem (LLRP), a combination of the facility location problem and the cumulative capacitated vehicle routing problem, is a recently proposed variant of location routing problems. It corresponds to a customer‐centric problem, in which the aim is to minimize the sum of the arrival times at the customers.
