The problem is subsequently solved by using a standard nonlinear mathematical programming solver. The results obtained are realistic, and the formulation provides ample modeling flexibility, which allows the decision maker to obtain target-specific optimal solutions. journal article LitStream Collection ...
His unique approach and great understanding of the bigger picture makes Mike so incredibly valuable to have overseeing all aspects of freight. In past situations Mike has been a true hero and navigated each plot twist to see it through to success. Being a problem solver and working out kinks...
Different types of mathematical algorithms, among which heuristics such as genetic algorithm or particle swarm optimization can be used to address the problem. This paper offers another approach in solving the proposed problem with the MS Excel Solver. The numerical example given in this research ...
In the partial approach, astraightforward model of a transp01tation network, which canbe solved through the use of the Solver computer tool within theExcel spreadsheet inteiface, is quite sufficient. In the solving ofa multimodal transportation problem through the integralmethod, it is necessmy ...
In [1] was developed an Excel model with VBA to find an optimal transportation scheme. But the optimal solution is difficult to obtain by the Solver unless the initial solution is close to the optimum. In the present paper, we now apply the set-covering model and develop a heuristic to ...
Following the mathematical model, the routing problem is solved using Excel Solver by considering truck capacity and customer demand. Afterwards, the scheduling problem is solved using an Excel spreadsheet by considering truck loads and distance between points. When transport routes were determined, the...
