Uncertain Programming Model for Location Problem of Multi-product Logistics Distribution Centers
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper mainly investigates the location problem of multi-product logistics distribution centers in uncertain environment. Based on the assumption that the customers’ demands and the transportation times are uncertain variables, an uncertain programming model is constructed. On the precondition of satisfying the capacity constraint and time window constraint, the objective of the model is to minimize the mean yearly total cost which includes construction cost, management cost, inventory cost and transportation cost. At last, a numerical example is given to verify the feasibility of the proposed model, and Lingo software is employed to find the optimal solution.

A queuing-location model for in multi-product supply chain with lead time under uncertainty
Supply chain network design (SCND) problem has recently been gaining attention because an integrated management of the supply chain (SC) can reduce the unexpected/undesirable events and can affect definitely the efficiency of all the chain. A critical component of the planning activities of a manufacturing firm is the efficient design of its SC. Hence, SCND affords a sensitive platform for effi...
متن کاملAn optimization model for management of empty containers in distribution network of a logistics company under uncertainty
In transportation via containers, unbalanced movement of loaded containers forces shipping companies to reposition empty containers. This study addresses the problem of empty container repositioning (ECR) in the distribution network of a European logistics company, where some restrictions impose decision making in an uncertain environment. The problem involves dispatching empty contain...
متن کاملMulti-commodity Multimodal Splittable Logistics Hub Location Problem with Stochastic Demands
This study presents a multimodal hub location problem which has the capability to split commodities by limited-capacity hubs and transportation systems, based on the assumption that demands are stochastic for multi-commodity network flows. In the real world cases, demands are random over the planning horizon and those which are partially fulfilled, are lost. Thus, the present study handles dema...

A three-level relief chain including a number of suppliers in fixed locations, candidate distribution centers and affected areas at certain points are considered. A mixed integer nonlinear programming model is proposed for open transportation location routing problem by considering split delivery of demand. To solve a realistic problem, foregoing parameters are considered as fuzzy in our propos...
