Location-allocation analysis of humanitarian distribution plans: a case of United Nations Humanitarian Response Depots

An allocation-routing optimization model for integrated solid waste management

“…in the VRP, the demand of customers is satisfied by each vehicle with a certain (Babaee Tirkolaee et al, 2020aTirkolaee et al, , 2020bMidya et al, 2021;Tirkolaee et al, 2021). Moreover, machine learning algorithms are employed as a predictive model to predict the problem's parameters which impose uncertainty in different types of the subject (Çevik et al, 2017;Eligüzel et al, 2022;Kilic et al, 2014). Because considering them as deterministic parameters is an over-simplification of the real-world problem (Zantalis et al, 2019).…”

Multi-mitigation strategies in medical supplies for epidemic outbreaks

“…LA determines the number, location and size of facilities that economically supply the given demand nodes with commodities. Recently [ 8 ], devised three different LA models and deployed them on the real distribution network, and the parameters involved in LA models are all deterministic. Research on LA also incorporates parametric uncertainties [ 9 ].…”
