A Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows Subject to the Constraint of Vehicles and Good’s Dimensions
A vehicle routing problem (VRP) can be defined as a problem of finding the optimal route with the goal to minimize the travel distance, time, and cost used in a distribution process. A vehicle routing problem with time windows also known as a Time Window Priority Model (TWPM) prioritizes time wi...

description |
A vehicle routing problem (VRP) can be
defined as a problem of finding the optimal route with the goal to minimize the
travel distance, time, and cost used in a distribution process. A vehicle
routing problem with time windows also known as a Time Window Priority Model
(TWPM) prioritizes time windows in the mathematical modelling so that vehicles
would not delay at any point during the distribution process. There exist few
literatures discussing a TWPM subject to carrying capacity. They only consider
the volume of vehicle container and the volume of items being carried, arbitrary
using 90% of the vehicle’s capacity which causes a large unused capacity. The
utilization of capacity which is defined as the ratio the actual weight of the
items being transported to the maximum weight of the total items with full
capacity, is an important factor for an efficient transportation. We believe that the utilization of the vehicle’s
capacity can be increased when taking into account the actual dimensions of goods,
such as their lengths, widths, and heights, as well as the dimensions of the vehicle’s
containers. In this study, we consider a 3-dimensional loading constraints i.e.
the length, width, and height of both items and vehicles. Based on the results
of the study, it can be concluded that taking into account the actual dimensions
of items and containers in the capacity constraint increases the utilization of
vehicles as well as reduces the total travel distance. Moreover, in some cases
the total number of routes can be reduced. |
