Park‐and‐multi‐loop with autonomous delivery robots in last‐mile logistics

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper deals with the park‐and‐multi‐loop routing problem, in the context of last‐mile logistics, in which a fleet of traditional vehicles equipped with several autonomous delivery robots leaves from a depot to service a set of customer requests.

Heuristic approaches for a new variant of the team orienteering problem

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we tackle the team orienteering problem (TOP) with service times, mandatory nodes and incompatibilities arising from two real‐world healthcare applications. We propose two heuristic algorithms: a variable neighbourhood descent algorithm and a matheuristic based on a cut separation approach.

“Why?”: C. Wright Mills on the Spirit of the Classical Sociological Tradition and Positivist Versus Critical Sociology

Sociology Lens, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite their very diverse interests, the classical sociological thinkers were concerned with analyzing the dramatic social transformations in the wake of colonialism, slavery, and modern industrial capitalism as well as the multiple revolutions, particularly in relation to the new forms of social inequalities and power disparities.

Human and AI judgements of restorative responses to sexual abuse: The role of perceived severity

Legal and Criminological Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Restorative justice (RJ) offers an alternative or complement to criminal justice in sexual abuse cases, yet the public remains ambivalent. Given that survivors increasingly turn to large language models (LLMs) for information and support when coping with sensitive justice‐related decisions, the present study examined whether the ...

Recent Diachronic Change in Affiliative Vocatives in British English

World Englishes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates recent diachronic change in affiliative address in spoken British English by comparing data from the demographic components of the BNC1994 and BNC2014. Using a systematically coded dataset of over 6000 vocative tokens, we analyze forms that signal solidarity and social closeness (including dude, bro, girl, dear, love ...

Collaborative platooning and routing for mixed fleets of electric automated vehicles and conventional trucks

International Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 460-500, January 2027.
Abstract The application of automated ground vehicles (AGVs) is well‐established in closed environments such as port terminals, while their operation in open areas remains challenging. In this work, we set out to overcome this limitation by introducing platooning as a transfer mode in heterogeneous vehicle networks.

Entanglement-Enhanced Quantum-Inspired Tabu Search Algorithm for Function Optimization

IEEE Access, 2017
Many metaheuristic algorithms have been proposed to solve combinatorial and numerical optimization problems. Most optimization problems have high dependence, meaning that variables are strongly dependent on one another.

Straddle carrier routing optimization at container terminals utilizing telemetry‐based prediction

International Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 429-459, January 2027.
Abstract Efficient vehicle routing and scheduling for horizontal transport means on container terminals can reduce lead times and travel distances, resulting in fuel savings and productivity gains. We apply machine learning to emulate operational processes, bridging the gap between theoretical optimization models and real‐world practices at container ...
