Short Period

The battery quick exchange mode is an effective solution to resolve the battery charging problem of electric vehicle. For the electric vehicle battery distribution network with the battery quick exchange mode, the distribution model and algorithm are researched; the general mathematical model to take delivery of the vehicle routing problem with time window (VRP-SDPTW) is established. By analyzing the relationship between the main variables, structure priority function of the initial population, a new front crossover operator, swap mutation operator and reverse mutation operator are designed, and an improved genetic algorithm solving VRP-SDPTW is constructed. The algorithm could overcome the traditional genetic algorithm premature convergence defects. The example shows that the improved genetic algorithm can be effective in the short period of time to obtain the satisfactory solution of the VRP-SDPTW.

Measure Function

The time-dependent vehicle routing problem of time windows of fresh agricultural products distribution have been studied by considering both economic cost and environmental cost. A calculation method for road travel time across time periods is designed in this study. A freshness measure function of agricultural products and a measure function of carbon emission rate are employed by considering time-varying vehicle speeds, fuel consumptions, carbon emissions, perishable agricultural products, customers’ time windows, and minimum freshness. A time-dependent green vehicle routing problem with soft time windows (TDGVRPSTW) model is formulated. The object of the TDGVRPSTW model is to minimize the sum of economic cost and environmental cost. According to the characteristics of the model, a new variable neighborhood adaptive genetic algorithm is designed, which integrates the global search ability of the genetic algorithm and the local search ability of the variable neighborhood descent algorithm. Finally, the experimental data show that the proposed approaches effectively avoid traffic congestions, reduce total distribution costs, and promote energy conservation and emission reduction.
