The purpose of this study is to examine the use of drones to provide transportation security
during times of intentional disruption. Due to the nature of valuable goods, their …

Hazardous material transportation is an integral part of industries that pose significant risks.
Hazardous material transportation risk of is proportional to the volume of materials …

Cash/valuables routing is vulnerable to attacks and robberies, so it is essential to prioritize
transport security. This research employs a surveillance drone approach to enhance the …

Traffic congestion problems are very common in large municipalities, especially in areas
with karst features. Traffic jams happen in many key traffic nodes (such as the bridges across …

This paper presents a novel variant of the vehicle routing problem (VRP) that considers
overlapped links for the transportation of valuables. Maintaining security and minimizing …

The purpose of the dissimilar paths problem is to find a set of paths, between the same pair
of nodes, which share few arcs. The problem has been addressed from an application point …

Abstract The Cash-in-Transit (CIT) deals with the transportation of banknotes, coins, and
other valuable items. Due to the high-value density of these products, incorporating security …

While finding a path between two nodes is the basis for several applications, the need for
alternative paths also may have various motivations. For instance, it can be of interest to …

The target-oriented robust optimization (TORO) approach converts the original objectives to
system targets and instead maximizes an uncertainty budget or robustness index. Machine …

In this paper, we studied a stochastic bi‐objective mathematical model for effective and
reliable rescue operations in multigraph network. The problem is addressed by a two‐stage …
