1. 21. A pragmatic approach to improve the efficiency of the waste management system in Stockholm through the use of Big Data, Heuristics and open source VRP solvers : A real life waste collection problem;Stockholm’s waste collection system and inherent vehicle routing problem, VRP

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Rafael Salcedo Villanueva; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In this thesis, we will address a real life waste collection problem; Stockholm’s waste collection system and inherent vehicle routing problem, VRP. To do this we will first delve into some mathematical theory of Combinatorial Optimization and Heuristics to understand the fundamentals of the problem. READ MORE

3. 22. Parameter Guidelines for Electric Vehicle Route Planning

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Joakim Fridlund; Oliver Wilén; [2020]
   Keywords : Electric vehicle; Guidelines; Simulation of urban mobility; Electric route planner implementation; Elbil; Riktlinjer; Simulation of Urban Mobility; Ruttplanerare elbil;

   Abstract : There is an urgent need to migrate the vehicle industry from conventional combustion vehicles to electric vehicles due to pressing climate changes caused by the fossil fuel industry. The general public seem to have a prejudice against electric vehicles due to their limited range and the extra planning that may be required from the user. READ MORE

4. 23. A New Approach for Solving the Disruption in Vehicle Routing Problem During the Delivery : A Comparative Analysis of VRP Meta-Heuristics

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för datavetenskap

   Author : Sai Chandana Kaja; [2020]
   Keywords : Vehicle Routing Problem; Disruption; Vehicle breakdown; Solution algorithms; Meta-heuristics; Tabu Search.;

   Abstract : Context. The purpose of this research paper is to describe a new approach for solving the disruption in the vehicle routing problem (DVRP) which deals with the disturbance that will occur unexpectedly within the distribution area when executing the original VRP plan. READ MORE

5. 24. EVALUATING THE REVERSE LOGISTICS AND VEHICLE ROUTING OF CLOTHES : A CASE STUDY FOR THE SWEDISH RED CROSS

   University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

   Author : BENEDICTA NANA AMA EWUSIWA OSAM-PINANKO; [2020]
   Keywords : Swedish Red Cross; Vehicle Routing Problem; Driving time analysis; Secondhand clothes; Textile recycling; ArcGIS Online.;

   Abstract : Goal number 12 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by the United Nations (UN)emphasises on how the increase in the world population is hampering the achievement ofenvironmental sustainability. The diminishing resources of nature draw attention to the factthat more innovative methods need to salvage the environment and the planet at large. READ MORE

6. 25. Warehouse Vehicle Routing using Deep Reinforcement Learning

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

   Author : Johan Oxenstierna; [2019]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In this study a Deep Reinforcement Learning algorithm, MCTS-CNN, is applied on the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) in warehouses. Results in a simulated environment show that a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) can be pre-trained on VRP transition state features and then effectively used post-training within Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS).
