Electric Vehicle Routing Problem with Battery Swapping Considering Energy Consumption and Carbon Emissions

open access: yesSustainability, 2020
In this paper, we study an electric vehicle routing problem while considering the constraints on battery life and battery swapping stations. We first introduce a comprehensive model consisting of speed, load and distance to measure the energy consumption

SavingsAnts for the Vehicle Routing Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In this paper we propose a hybrid approach for solving vehicle routing problems. The main idea is to combine an Ant System (AS) with a problem specific constructive heuristic, namely the well known Savings algorithm. This differs from previous approaches, where the subordinate heuristic was the Nearest Neighbor algorithm initially proposed for the TSP.
