Abstract:

In the consumption mode of combining online e-commerce and offline stores, the goods purchased by consumers can be provided by multiple offline stores at the same time, which leads to the unfixed pickup point of goods. Therefore, it is necessary to make decisions on the selection of pickup points and the delivery routing when distributing goods. The electric vehicle pickup and delivery problem with pickup-point selection in the case of unfixed pickup point is studied. After characterizing the constraints such as time window, charging time and battery capacity of the pickup point and the customer delivery point, a mixed integer programming formulation is formulated to minimize the total distribution cost. According to the characteristics of the model, an improved adaptive large neighborhood search algorithm is developed. In order to expand the search space of feasible solution, a variety of destroy operators and repair operators are designed for charging station nodes and pickup-and-delivery nodes, and a new solution acceptance criterion based on simulated annealing is used to improve the search efficiency. In this paper, the greedy random adaptive repair operator and the minimum spanning tree destruction operator are first proposed. The effectiveness and superiority of the proposed algorithm are verified by a comprehensive numerical experiment analysis, The numerical results show that: (1) The influence of the selection of the pickup points on the total cost and the improvement effect of the proposed new operators on the algorithm are emphatically analyzed. (2) Considering the selection of pickup points can greatly reduce the number of vehicles and delivery costs. When logistics enterprise operators plan the route of pickup and delivery vehicles, the selection of pickup and delivery points should be made at the same time as the planning of the pickup and delivery path, rather than first deciding the pickup point and then optimizing the pickup and delivery routes. The selection of pickup points and the pickup and delivery routing are isolated into two independent issues for decision-making.The research results of this paper not only enrich the study of the route optimization of electric vehicles for pickup and delivery, but also provide a decision-making reference for logistics enterprises to design distribution and delivery schemes.

Key words: pickup and delivery, pickup-point selection, destroy operator, repair operator, adaptive large neighborhood search
