The Optimized Transport Scheme of Empty and Heavy Containers with Novel Genetic Algorithm

To design the transport scheme of empty and heavy containers reasonably, a model with objective maximizing the route benefits is proposed. The model considered two factors: (1) the fluctuation of cargo transport demand and the switching of different voyages; (2) the optimal transport scheme of empty...
