Modified Differential Evolution Algorithm Solving the Special Case of Location Routing Problem
Mathematical and Computational Applications, 2018 This research article aims to solve the special case of the location routing problem (SLRP) when the objective function is the fuel consumption. The fuel consumption depends on the distance of travel and the condition of the road.

A Multi-Objective Optimization Model For Location-Inventory-Routing Problem in a Multi-Echelon Supply Chain Network Considering Maximum Demand Coverage [PDF]
Muṭāli̒āt-i Mudīriyyat-i Ṣan̒atī, 2019 Today, intense competition in global markets has forced companies to design and manage of supply chains in a better way. Since the role of three factors: location, routing and inventory is important to continue the life of a supply chain so, integration ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Algorithms, 2021 The location routing problem integrates both a facility location and a vehicle routing problem. Each of these problems are NP-hard in nature, which justifies the use of heuristic-based algorithms when dealing with large-scale instances that need to be ...
