Two-echelon Multi-trip Vehicle Routing Problem with Synchronization for An Integrated Water- and Land-based Transportation System

This study considers an integrated water- and land-based transportation (IWLT) system for waste collection. Research on the issue is motivated by increased heavy street movements that damage quay walls as well as congestion. We present a novel two-echelon vehicle routing problem with satellite synchronization based on a two-index formulation and...
