SELECTION CRITERION FOR VEHICLE MATERIALS: AN ECONOMETRIC MODEL

UN CRITERIO PARA LA ELECCION DEL MATERIAL DE UN VEHICULO: MODELO ECONOMETRICO

The difficulty in defining objective criteria when selecting a given product in relation to the service it is expected to render, has resulted in the development of different mathematical models, as a means of finding the optimum solution. For transport, this selection has always been complex, not only for the choice of vehicles best tailored to the particular service characteristics, but even for the transport system to operate the service. This article focuses on the construction of mathematical models adapted to the transport structure and lays the bases for future developments in this sphere.
