Abstract: Hub location problem is one of the most important problems in the areas of logistics and telecommunication network design. In this paper, we address the single allocation maximal covering hub location problem in which the objective is to maximise the amount of covered flows associated with origin-destination pairs in a hub-and-spoke network using a fixed number of hub facilities. Two ...

The Single Allocation Ordered Median Hub Location problem is a recent hub model introduced in [36] that provides a unifying analysis of a wide class of hub location models. In this paper, we deal with the capacitated version of this problem, presenting two formulations as well as some preprocessing phases for fixing variables. In addition, a strengthening of one of these formulations is also st...

The hub location problem with single assignment is the problem of locating hubs and assigning the terminal nodes to hubs in order to minimize the cost of hub installation and the cost of routing the traffic in the network. There may also be capacity restrictions on the amount of traffic that can transit by hubs. The aim of this paper is to investigate polyhedral properties of these problems and...

Hubs are special centers that used for switching, transferring and handling freight or passengers in transportation systems. The hub location problem deals with locating hub facilities and allocating demand nodes to hubs in order to route the traffic between origin–destination pairs. Aiming at minimizing the total costs, maximizing utilization of transporters, maximizing the service level, etc....

We consider the hub location problem, where p hubs are chosen from a given set of nodes, each nonhub node is connected to exactly one hub and each hub is connected to a central hub. Links are installed on the arcs of the resulting network to route the traffic. The aim is to find the hub locations and the connections to minimize the link installation cost. We propose two formulations and a heuri...

hub covering problem (hlp) is a very popular areas of research for its wide ranges of applications in different service or manufacturing industries. this paper considers a bi-objective hub covering location problem with congestion. the objectives minimize the total transportation cost and the total waiting time for all hobs, respectively. the resulted multi-objective decision-making problem is ...

This paper deals with hub-and-spoke network design in the liner shipping sector. It introduces a capacitated directed cycle hub location and cargo routing problem under congestion. The involves four decisions: of ports; allocation non-hub ports to construction cyclic route at port level; between all origin-destination demand pairs network. objective is minimize cost which includes fixed opening...

This paper studies capacitated single-allocation hub covering location problem with fuzzy cover radius and travel time. Objective of hub covering problem is to find the minimum number of hubs considering the maximum allowable travel time. Computational results show that due to uncertainty, number of hubs and the allocation of non-hub nodes to hub nodes are changed. This paper proposes heuristic...
