1. 1. An Optimization Model for Electric Vehicle Routing with Tractor Swapping

   University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

   Author : Alexander Strid; Daniel Liu; [2022]
   Keywords : Vehicle Routing Problem VRP ; tractor swapping; electric VRP; rich VRP; heavy goods vehicles; mixed-integer linear programming MILP ; applied mathematics; ruttoptimering; traktorbyte; elektriska lastbilar; tunga lastbilar; linjär heltalsoptimering; tillämpad matematik;

   Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how tractor swapping can be implemented in Vehicle Routing Problems (VRP) with electric heavy goods vehicles, and to evaluate how a model that allows for tractor swapping performs, in terms of schedule cost, against a model that does not. Hence, this thesis introduces a new rich VRP variant which includes tractor swapping, as well as time windows, pickup and delivery, and electric vehicles. READ MORE

3. 2. Evaluation of a Portfolio in Dow Jones Industrial Average Optimized by Mean-Variance Analysis

   University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

   Author : Alexander Strid; Daniel Liu; [2020]
   Keywords : applied mathematics; mean-variance analysis; modern portfolio theory; Markowitz; Dow Jones Industrial Average; quadratic optimization; portfolio optimization; tillämpad matematik; mean-variance analysis; modern portföljteori; Markowitz; Dow Jones Industrial Average; kvadratisk optimering; portföljoptimering;

   Abstract : This thesis evaluates the mean-variance analysis framework by comparing the performance of an optimized portfolio consisting of stocks from the Dow Jones Industrial Average to the performance of the Dow Jones Industrial Average index itself. The results show that the optimized portfolio performs better than the corresponding index when evaluated on the period between 2015 and 2019. READ MORE
