Optimisation methods for the multi-period petrol station replenishment problem: A case study at AMCSBoers, Luke (author)The petrol distribution problem is well-known in the literature as the Petrol Station Replenishment Problem (PSRP). This research concerns a "rich" version of the multi-period PSRP with real-life characteristics, to represent the complexity of the practical problem. The planning is optimised over multiple days, since stations do not need to be...master thesis 2020

Boers, Luke (author), Atasoy, B. (author), Correia, Gonçalo (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author)We present a “rich” Petrol Station Replenishment Problem (PSRP) with real-life characteristics that represents the complexities involved in actual operations. The planning is optimised over multiple days and therefore, the new variant can be classified as the Multi-Period Petrol Station Replenishment Problem (MP-PSRP). A Mixed Integer Linear...conference paper 2020

de Boer, Daan (author)The retail market is changing rapidly. Many new offline, as well as online competitors, arrived. As a result, customers became more demanding. One of the critical elements is that customers expect a high variety of products that are always available. Out of Stocks (OoSs) in apparel stores result in lost sales in the short term and a declining...master thesis 2018

Global assessment of the potential effect of large sand replenishment on fresh groundwater resourcesPanteli, Nefeli (author)Sand replenishments, or nourishments, have been the prevalent strategy of the Netherlands for coastal protection since 1990. In consideration of the expected sea level rise and potential increases of storm surges as a result of climate change, an innovative pilot project known as the ‘Sand Engine’ has been implemented. In contrast with...student report 2017

Satoglou, A. (author)Inventory management is one of the cornerstones of supply chain management as inventory consists of a key contributor in all supply chains. In the supply chain sector, many inventory management-related problems have been broadly investigated and discussed over the years. It is of great importance for the supply chain of a company to make proper...master thesis 2016

Versantvoort, G. (author)MANAGEMENT SUMMARY Introduction Due to warm weather in the Netherlands in 2013, out of stocks (OOS) on several products occurred in the warehouses at Heineken. Warmer weather than usual caused a more volatile demand, leading to these OOS. An OOS at Heineken, meaning that Heineken is unable to ship an order due to insufficient stock, has negative...master thesis 2014

Esteves, A.C.C. (author), Lyakhova, K. (author), De With, G. (author)Previously, we reported a self-replenishing polymer surfaces which recover their lowsurface energy (i.e. hydrophobicity), upon surface damage[1]. Following up, we used a dual experimental-simulation approach to understand in-depth the surface segregation of low surface energy components[2], the self-healing mechanism involved on the surface...conference paper 2013

Zhang, Y. (author), Esteves, A.C.C. (author), Van der Ven, L.G.J. (author), Van Benthem, R.A.T.M. (author), De With, G. (author)Hydrophobic materials hold many properties that are desirable in coatings, e.g. water repellency and low-adhesion are essential to achieve an easy-to-clean/ self-cleaning behavior. However, most of the coatings currently available cannot maintain their hydrophobicity upon surface damage or wear, due to the irreversible loss of the low surface...conference paper 2013

Hartevelt, R. (author)During the design supply chain control processes, balancing cost versus service plays an important role. To select the most suitable replenishment strategy is the main enabler in reaching the goal of finding the optimal balance. In this article a framework is developed which will help to select the right replenishment strategy and to design a...journal article 2011

Verhagen, H.J. (author)The erosion of a nourished beach may be conveniently described as the sum of the linear coastal retreat and a surcharge which decreases exponentially in time. Application of this model to data from eight nourishment projects in north-western Europe has shown on average only 52% of nourished volume becomes a permanent part of the coastal volume....report 1996

Kersting, N.F. (author)In 1993 an artificial sand nourishment was carried out at the coast of Terschelling. The total amount of supply was deposited in a trough between two breaker bars, up to a level of about NAP -5m. The present report gives a prediction of the development of the coast in the next 10 years. For this, a mathematical model has been used, in which the...master thesis 1995
