In this article a capacitated transportation problem is considered which is formulated as a multi objective capacitated transportation problem with mixed constraints. To determine the optimum compromise solution of multi objective capacitated transportation problem (MOCTP) with mixed constraints a Fuzzy multi objective programming approach has been applied in which we use three different forms ...

the heterogeneous fixed fleet open vehicle routing problem (hffovrp) is one of the most significant extension problems of the open vehicle routing problem (ovrp). the hffovrp is the problem of designing collection routes to a number of predefined nodes by a fixed fleet number of vehicles with various capacities and related costs. in this problem, the vehicle doesn’t return to the depot after se...

network location models comprise one of the main categories of location models. these models have various applications in regional and urban planning as well as in transportation, distribution, and energy management. in a network location problem, nodes represent demand points and candidate locations to locate the facilities. if the links network is unchangeably determined, the problem will be ...

In the literature, the application of multi-objective dynamic scheduling problem and simple priority rules are widely studied. Although these rules are not efficient enough due to simplicity and lack of general insight, composite dispatching rules have a very suitable performance because they result from experiments. In this paper, a dynamic flexible flow line problem with sequence-dependent se...

The design of closed-loop logistics (forward and reverse logistics) has attracted growing attention with the stringent pressures of customer expectations, environmental concerns and economic factors. This paper considers a multi-product, multi-period and multi-objective closed-loop logistics network model with regard to facility expansion as a facility location–allocation problem, which more cl...

Answer set programming languages have been extended to support linear constraints and objective functions. However, the variables allowed in the constraints and functions are restricted to integer and Boolean domains, respectively. In this paper, we generalize the domain of linear constraints to real numbers and that of objective functions to integers. Since these extensions are based on a tran...

This paper deals with a multi-period fixed charge production-distribution problem associated with backorder and inventories. The objective is to determine the size of the shipments from each supplier and backorder and inventories at each period, so that the total cost incurred during the entire period towards production, transportation, backorder and inventories is minimised. A 0-1 mixed intege...
