De Bakker, F.F. (author)
The project addresses cost savings and productivity improvement by pooling of resources between independent companies through multi-agent, bargaining-based decision methods. Cost savings are realized by optimizing plans across companies, while the pooling decision and the benefit distribution is done by bargaining. Applications with these...

The goal of this thesis is developing an efficient method that produces good quality solutions to real-life Vehicle Routing Problems with time-dependent travel times. The Time-Dependent Vehicle Routing Problem (TDVRP) is one of the most challenging combinatorial optimisation problems and belongs to the category of NP-hard problems. Therefore,...

In this thesis, we take a look at the Asymmetrical Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (ACVRP). We will take a look at different possible formulations for the problem and choose one based on the ease of implementation, the computation speed of solving it, and the available relaxations. The problem, and its relaxations, will be modeled and solved...

This thesis explores the possibilities to improve order allocation for petrol delivery with the aim to lower the travel distances. In this research a simulation model has been designed that can test different order pairing strategies for fuel delivery to petrol stations. The Multi–Period Split Compartment Vehicle Routing Problem with Time...

Real-time optimization of Vehicle Routing Problems during mission operations raises concerns regarding reliability of obtaining a solution and solution time. Improvements in control performance by having a human-in-the-loop might be possible by leveraging human visual pattern recognition qualities. By developing an ecological interface,...

This research presents an Integrated Production and Distribution Scheduling (IPDS) optimization problem in which the total transportation costs for an online grocer have to be minimized. The production refers to the preparation of orders at the production facility and the distribution is related to the transportation from the production...

The term last-mile delivery refers to the final leg of a business-to-customer service, in which a product is shipped from a depot to a final destination point by means of land transportation, such as vans and small trucks. Although they provide a common and easy way to consign products, companies are striving for new transport technologies to...

Congestion in the landside air cargo supply chain occurs for different concurring reasons. Lack of coordination between freight forwarders, as example, might create truck congestion on the ground handler side. Horizontal collaboration between forwarders can be introduced and modeled via mathematical programming to mitigate congestion. Resulting...

Borst, Luke (author)
Inefficiency in trucking has both economical and ecological consequences. In literature, horizontal collaboration is identified as one of the most promising solutions to this problem. However, collaboration is not often encountered in trucking industry, since carriers are hesitant to join collaborations. This is caused by a fear of sharing...

Intention Aware Routing System is a route-planning algorithm for electric vehicles that minimizes overall travel time by taking into consideration congestion at charging stations. This paper extends this algorithm to allow choices to be made based on prices at charging stations. The goal of this paper is to find a way to minimize maximum...

This paper introduces an electricity price extension to the intention-aware routing system (IARS) for electric vehicles (EV). The existing intention-aware routing system is used to route electric vehicles who require to charge en-route through a road network. To achieve the objective of minimising the average journey time, the intentions of EVs...

Maseland, Niels (author)
This paper studies a variation of the pickup and delivery formulation with time windows which is applied to air cargo export operations. The formulation is extended using three factors. 1) Pickup nodes are positioned at freight forwarders. Delivery nodes are located at ground handlers. Trucks can only visit one freight forwarder. 2) Dock...

Fleet planning is a complex problem which consists of selecting an optimal fleet of vehicles at the right moment in time to serve a specific demand while subject to different operational constraints. While Operations Research (OR) has mainly focused on long-term strategical fleet planning optimisation, certain operators such as humanitarian air...

In order to reduce aircraft emissions during on-ground operations, electric taxiing systems (ETS) have been intensively researched to take over or assist in part of the taxiing phase of a flight. One of these ETS is the TaxiBot, deployed by Smart Airport Systems (SAS). While a number of papers have been researching this vehicle routing problem ...

Vehicle routing problems (VRPs), a generalization of the traveling salesman problem, are extensively studied combinatorial optimization problems for their practical application. Many solution methods, e.g., exact and heuristic algorithms, have been proposed in the last few decades but require relatively much computation time due to the NP-hard...

Realistic vehicle routing problems have been highly relevant for years in a wide variety of domains. One such domain is food delivery, where well-crafted routes can reduce costs and contribute to customer satisfaction. This thesis formulates a problem variant for the restaurant meal delivery problem in order to examine the reoptimization of meal...
