hub location problems are among the extensions ofclassical location problems that have numerous applications in designingtransportation, postal, and telecommunication networks. despite the evidentattention of researchers to these problems, there are few studies on designinghub networks under uncertainty and disruption. in this study, the capacitatedsingle allocation hub location problem under d...

Hub ports play an important role in reducing the number of container routes and saving operating costs liner companies. However, hub failures caused by uncertainties such as natural disasters may cause huge recovery costs. Considering accidental failure probability reallocation feeder ports, a global reliable shipping location problem (RLSHLP) is studied. We use k-means algorithm to divide netw...

In many logistic systems for less than truckload (LTL) shipments, transportation of goods from one origin to its destination is made through collection tours to a hub and delivery tours from the same or another hub, while the goods are shipped between two hubs using Full Truckload (FTL) shipments. Therefore, managers need to determine the location of the hubs, the allocation of non-hub nodes, a...

A p-hub center network design problem is definition of some nodes as hubs and allocation of non-hub nodes to them wherein the maximum travel times between any pair of nodes is minimized. The distinctive feature of this study is proposing a new mathematical formulation for modeling costs in a p-hub center problem. Here, instead of considering costs as a linear function of distance, for the first...

In this paper, a stochastic programming approach is applied to the airline network revenue management problem. The airline network with the arc capacitated single hub location problem based on complete–star p-hub network is considered. We try to maximize the profit of the transportation company by choosing the best hub locations and network topology, applying revenue management techniques to al...

In this paper we consider a capacitated single allocation p-hub median problem (CSApHMP) which is to determine the location of p hubs, the allocation of non-hub nodes to hubs in the logistics network. This problem is formulated as an integer programming model with the objective of minimizing the sum of total transportation cost and fixed cost of the selected p hubs. Since the CSApHMP is NP-hard...

In this paper we consider a capacitated single allocation p-hub median problem with multiple capacity levels (CSApHMPMC) in which the decisions are to determine the location of p hubs and their capacity levels, the single allocation of non-hub nodes to hubs in the logistics network. This problem is formulated as an integer programming model with the objective of minimizing the sum of total tran...
