Transportation Distance

In this paper, a procedure to determine the optimal location of a distribution warehouse, from which products are sent out to a group of companies has been studied. The goal was to minimize annual transportation distance between the warehouse and the customers. Fundamentals of mathematics have been used to formulate a virtual map showing the location of the present customers. Mathematical models and equations were developed making certain assumptions and an optimal location for the warehouse has been determined. Various factors that are involved in relocating the warehouse have been considered. Also a solution is given for the optimal location of a satellite or an auxiliary warehouse in addition to the existing one. A case study has been conducted on the model with the help of various numerical examples. Based on the optimal location of the relocated warehouse and the satellite warehouse obtained, the reductions in the transport costs were estimated. Once the optimal warehouse location has been found out, the next step was to find out an optimal route (least travel distance) for a practical case in which several companies have to be supplied with necessary products from one warehouse in a single trip. For this purpose, mathematical models were created and optimal routing algorithms were developed. Case studies have been conducted with the help of numerical examples. High amounts of savings in terms of travel distances, costs and time could be observed by the implementation of these algorithms.

Placement and determination of waste landfill locations in each city is very important. The location of a landfill that is not well organized will cause some negative consequences, which can cause damage to infrastructure; local environmental pollution; release of methane gas which is called organic decomposition; means of carrying diseases such as rats and flies; and simple interference. The existing landfill in Gresik city, precisely in the Ngipik Village, needs to be evaluated again because besides being in an urban location, the TPA has already been overloaded. Stakeholders need to find alternative locations to organize the city and make the city more comfortable for residential and urban areas. The solution to the problem requires a support method to find a solution. One method of supporting the decision is the method of transportation, this method can help to determine the optimal location of various alternatives. The transportation method discusses the distribution of goods from a number of sources (supply) to various destinations (requests) with the aim of minimizing the costs of transportation that occur. The results of calculating the optimal solution for each location using POM software by using a combination of existing landfill with TPA proposed I total costs spent in a day Rp.1.764.105,20. Temporary costs incurred using the existing landfill combination with TPA proposed II is Rp. 1.981.150,60. And the costs incurred using the existing landfill combination with the TPA proposed I and TPA proposed II ​​amounting to Rp.2.121.919,80. The combination of the use of the existing landfill with TPA proposed I has the lowest cost value of all alternatives.
