We consider optimizing a truck's choice of path and speed profile to minimise fuel
consumption, exploiting real-time predictive information on dynamically varying traffic …

This paper explores the fuel savings that can be achieved by optimizing the speed trajectory
of a heavy-duty truck traversing a sequence of intersections, under the assumptions that the …

In the vehicle routing literature, there is an increasing focus on time-dependent routing
problems, where the time (or cost) to travel between any pair of nodes (customers, depots) …

Pollutants such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and particulates (black soot) are
released from vehicle exhaust, affecting the quality of the air and contributing to another …

We consider the scenario where a long-haul heavy-duty truck drives across a national
highway system to fulfill multiple geographically-dispersed tasks in a specific order. The …

This article considers the problem of finding a route and schedule for a vehicle starting from
a depot, visiting a set of customers, and returning to the depot, in a time‐dependent network …

The problem addressed is how to drive a heavy truck over various road topographies such
that the fuel consumption is minimized. Using a realistic model of a truck powertrain, an …

In this paper, a multi-step model related to freight movements in urban areas is formalised to
solve a Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (VRPTW). In modelling terms, the …

In the management and control of a vehicle fleet on a road network, the problem arises of
finding the best route in relation to the mission of the fleet and to the typology of freight or …

We deal with an algorithm that, once origin and destination are fixed, individuates the route
that permits to reach the destination in the shortest time, respecting an assigned maximal …
