Multi-Trip Vehicle Routing Problem Based on Fuel Consumption Reduction

This paper discussed one multi trip vehicle routing problem based on fuel consumption reduction. A GA-BFD heuristic algorithm was developed to find the solution. The numerical example showed that the optimal vehicle routing schedule would change when a vehicle would be used for multi trips with a driving distance limit. The new vehicle routing schedule would increase fuel consumption. However, if the authors take account of the vehicle's lease cost, the total cost might decrease.
