Malashin, Vadim S. Tynchenko, Igor S. Masich, Denis A. Sukhanov, and 5 more This is a preprint; it has not been peer reviewed by a journal. https://doi.org/ 10.21203/rs.3.rs-4450313/v1 This work is licensed under a CC BY 4.0 License Status: Posted Version 1 posted You are reading this latest preprint version Abstract This study explores groupage delivery optimization through a two-stage GA framework. The goal of optimization is to define locations of regional branch warehouses of Logistics Network to reduce transportation costs. The first stage of the GA focuses on identifying branch warehouses from a list of cities and uses the standard binary string approach, while the second stage solves Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) using combinatorial GA. This research contributes to advancing logistics optimization methodologies and provides valuable insights for solving Location Routing Problem (LRP) which entails two problems: the Facility Location Problem (FLP) and the Multiple Vehicle Routing Problem (MVRP).
