摘要
In shipping network, feeder ships are needed to fulfill the demand of cargo transportation between a hub-port and its feeder ports. The objective of feeder ship routing problem (FSRP) is to minimize the transportation cost, while the feasible time of entering and leaving a port is affected by tide and load, due to the limitation of the waterway depth. Different from classic VRPTW (vehicle routing problem with time windows), the tidal time windows of FSRP raised by this study changes by the route of the ship, bringing challenge to solve the problem. This paper studies an FSRP with nonlinear time window, and solved by column generation, after a model simplification by Dantzig-Wolfe Decomposition. Numerical experiment and sensitivity analysis proofed that the algorithm is effective as well as that consider tidal influence can effectively reduce the operation cost of fleet. © 2022 Systems Engineering Society of China.
