The two-echelon capacitated vehicle routing problem: models and math-based heuristics [PDF]
Multiechelon distribution systems are quite common in supply-chain and logistics. They are used by public administrations in their transportation and traffic planning strategies, as well as by companies, to model own distribution systems.

Conflict-free vehicle routing [PDF]
Collision-free vehicle routing occurs in many applications from robot movements via scheduling multiple cranes in steel logistics to the transport of containers by automated guided vehicles. In cooperation with the HHLA Container Terminal Altenwerder (CTA), we have developed a dynamic online routing algorithm that computes collision-free routes for ...

Current State of Dynamic Vehicle Routing Problems Solved by Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm
Dynamic Vehicle Routing Problem is a more complex version of Vehicle Routing Problem, closer to the present, real-world problems. Heuristic methods are used to solve the problem as Vehicle Routing Problem is NP-hard. Among many different solution methods,

Vehicle routing with cross-docking [PDF]
Summary: Over the past decade, cross-docking has emerged as an important material handling technology in transportation. A variation of the well-known Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP), the VRP with Cross-Docking (VRPCD) arises in a number of logistics planning contexts.

Investigating the use of metaheuristics for solving single vehicle routing problems with time-varying traversal costs [PDF]
Metaheuristic algorithms, such as simulated annealing and tabu search, are popular solution techniques for vehicle routing problems (VRPs). These approaches rely on iterative improvements to a starting solution, involving slight alterations to the routes

Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...
