Routing simulation model with allocation of burdens multimodal

Abstract

In the current work, we present the design of an allocation model of process plants to different customers considering the use of a fleet of vehicles with certain capabilities for the transport of goods, which is framed within theoretical model of mixed integer linear programming, developed from routing model with cargo allocation model and combined with multimodal transport. Furthermore, this model was applied using a simulation process on a real system, specifically the supply of recycled products Recycling Association ARB Bogotá Colombia, making a projection of their operation according to their medium-term strategic plan. This model is focused for businesses developing logistics supply or distribution especially within a supply chain using a fleet of vehicles with different capacities and in which a destination can only be served by a single source within the corresponding nodal network.
