Optimization of Territories and Transport Routes for Hazardous Materials in a Distribution Network

Purpose: This work presents a general model in mixed integer programming that integrates the design of the territory and distribution route planning, seeking to minimize the total distance covered by the vehicle in each territory. Design/methodology/approach: In this work, a mathematical optimizatio...
