3. 12. A practical framework for the electric vehicle routing problem

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

   Author : Johan Hellmark; [2022]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The routing of a delivery fleet is a classical optimization problem, known as the vehicle routing problem (VRP), which can heavily impact the quality of a logistic distribution process. Historically, the VRP formulation has mainly included internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs). READ MORE

   Keywords : last-mile delivery; green last-mile; e-commerce; route planning; vehicle routing problem; GIS; network analysis;

   Abstract : The e-commerce market has developed massively since the 1990ies. In addition to a general change of shopping behavior, the COVID-pandemic increased the importance of online shopping. This study is about the transportation of e-commerce parcels on the last mile in urban areas, so called last-mile delivery. READ MORE

6. 15. 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
