Keywords: Routing Scheduling Shelter Disaster Relief,
Abstract :
Each year natural disasters such as earthquake, tsunamis, hurricanes, etc. due to the thousands of people homeless, cause a significant loss of social, economic and even cause the death of many people. One of the most critical steps after the disaster is to evacuate healthy victims to shelters from disaster areas. We propose a mixed integer linear mathematical programming model to provide the routing and scheduling of relief vehicles with possibility of servicing to healthy people in the each disaster area by several relief vehicles, the possibility of getting service from the each shelter by several relief vehicles, several crisis centers, the number and capacity constraint for each vehicle, capacity constraint for each shelter and time windows constraint to get to relief vehicles to disaster areas and shelters. The objective of the model is to minimize total time to get to relief vehicles to the disaster areas and shelters.
