Green Logistics has emerged as the new agenda item in supply chain management. The
traditional objective of distribution management has been upgraded to minimizing system …

It has been around 30 years since the heterogeneous vehicle routing problem was
introduced, and significant progress has since been made on this problem and its variants …

The purpose of this paper is to describe industrial aspects of combined fleet composition
and routing in maritime and road-based transportation, and to present the current status of …

In the well-known Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) a set of identical vehicles, based at a
central depot, is to be optimally routed to supply customers with known demands subject to …

The multi-depot fleet size and mix vehicle routing problem, also known as the multi-depot
routing with heterogeneous vehicles, is investigated. A mathematical formulation is given …

We consider a vehicle routing problem with a heterogeneous fleet of vehicles having various
capacities, fixed costs and variable costs. An approach based on column generation (CG) is …

The vehicle routing problem (VRP) plays an important role in the distribution step of supply
chains. From a depot with identical vehicles of limited capacity, it consists in determining a …

We study a time-constrained heterogeneous vehicle routing problem on a multigraph where
parallel arcs between pairs of vertices represent different travel options based on criteria …

In this paper, a problem variant of the vehicle routing problem with time windows is
introduced to consider vehicle routing with a heterogeneous fleet, a limited number of …

Two new construction heuristics and a tabu search heuristic are presented for the truck and
trailer routing problem, a variant of the vehicle routing problem. Computational results …
