Optimization of ship routing depends on several parameters, like ship and cargo characteristics, environmental factors, topography, international navigation rules, crew comfort etc. The complex nature of the problem leads to…
The energy sector has become priority around the world with developing technology and increasing power and energy demand. That all sources for energy production are not renewable increases greenhouse gas emissions and causes global warming.…
Recent growing complexity in space missions has led to an active research field of space logistics and mission design. This research field leverages the key ideas and methods used to handle complex terrestrial logistics to tackle space…
Inland waterway transportation network significantly supports the overall freight transportation of the nation. In order to ensure efficient and timely commodity transportation through this network, this study aims at developing a reliable…
Governments across the world are planning to increase the share of renewables in their energy systems. The siting of new wind and solar power plants requires close coordination with grid planning, and hence co-optimization of investment in…
The optimal selection, sizing, and location of small-scale technologies within a grid-connected distributed energy system (DES) can contribute to reducing carbon emissions, consumer costs, and network imbalances. This is the first study to…
Autonomous ships are essentially designed and equipped to perceive their internal and external environment and subsequently perform appropriate actions depending on the predetermined objective(s) without human intervention. Consequently,…
We consider a multi-location inventory system where inventory choices at each location are centrally coordinated. Lateral transshipments are allowed as recourse actions within the same echelon in the inventory system to reduce costs and…
Tanker-based distribution systems have been prevalent in developing countries to supply clean and pure water in different regions. To efficiently operate such tanker service systems, a large fleet of tanker trucks are required to transport…
This paper introduces a new optimization model that integrates the multi-port stowage planning problem with the container relocation problem. This problem is formulated as a binary mathematical programming model that must find the…
Energy systems planning models identify least-cost strategies for expansion and operation of energy systems and provide decision support for investment, planning, regulation, and policy. Most are formulated as linear programming (LP) or…
The paper represents an algorithm for planning safe and optimal routes for transport facilities with unrestricted movement direction that travel within areas with obstacles. Paper explains the algorithm using a ship as an example of such a…
This paper is concerned with the container pre-marshalling problem, which involves relocating containers in the storage area so that they can be efficiently loaded onto ships without reshuffles. In reality, however, ship arrival times are…
Increasingly volatile electricity prices make simultaneous scheduling optimization desirable for production processes and their energy systems. Simultaneous scheduling needs to account for both process dynamics and binary on/off-decisions…
This study suggests a novel two-stage Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming model considering uncertainty related to implementation of carbon dioxide emission regulatory policies, which are carbon trading and emission taxing and can change…
In this paper, we study the cooperative operation problem between the fleet operator and incentive-aware customers in an on-demand delivery system. Specifically, the fleet operator offers discounts on transportation costs in exchange of the…
In this work, we aim to compare different methods and formulations to solve a problem in air traffic management to global optimality. In particular, we focus on the aircraft deconfliction problem, where we are given n aircraft, their…
This brief deals with the satisfaction of the daily cooling demand by a hybrid system that consists of a vapour-compression refrigeration cycle and a thermal energy storage (TES) unit, based on phase change materials. The addition of the…
This study addresses the urban transit pattern design problem, optimizing stop sequences, headways, and fleet sizes across multiple routes and periods simultaneously to minimize user costs (composed of riding, waiting, and transfer times)…
A significant amount of hazardous waste generated from health sectors and industrial processes has posed a major threat to human health by causing environmental issues and contamination of air, soil, and water resources. This paper presents…
