A Mobilização Nacional é um conjunto de atividades que visa capacitar o Brasil a planejar e executar ações no campo da Defesa Nacional para garantir a segurança e a soberania do país. Quando esta for decretada pelo Estado, os órgãos que fazem parte do Sistema de Defesa Nacional devem estar preparados e equipados para executarem suas funções. O Exército Brasileiro, um desses órgãos, no ano de 2006, adquiriu 250 viaturas blindadas de combate, das quais 216 para serem distribuídas em suas unidades de cavalaria no território brasileiro. O objetivo desse estudo é apresentar a melhor alternativa logística de transporte para o deslocamento desses carros de combate em uma organização militar, a partir de um determinado cenário, com menor custo e/ou tempo. Para atingir o objetivo foram realizadas consultas por meio de entrevistas e correspondências com especialistas em transporte, transporte militar e viaturas blindadas. As consultas possibilitaram definir as principais vantagens e desvantagens dos modais de transporte e os fatores relevantes no transporte de viaturas blindadas, permitindo a formulação da rede de transporte e elaboração de um instrumento de viabilidade dos modais de transporte (quadro de verificação) a serem aplicados às rotas de transporte. Um problema de transporte das viaturas blindadas, a partir de um cenário hipotético, foi resolvido por meio de um modelo matemático tendo como objetivo a minimização de custo ou tempo. Concluiu-se que o modelo matemático é uma ferramenta que pode auxiliar a tomada de decisão no transporte das viaturas blindadas, mas a melhor alternativa irá depender da adequada análise dos modais de transporte disponíveis e da correta formulação e aplicação do instrumento de viabilidade dos modais de transporte. / The National Mobilization is a set of activities that aims to enable Brazil to plan and execute actions in the field of National Defence toensure the security and sovereignty of the country. When it is ordered by the state organs that are part of the System of National Defense must be prepared and equipped to execute its functions. The Brazilian Army, one of these agencies, in 2006, purchased 250 armored combat vehicles, of which 216 to be distributed among their cavalry units in Brazil. The aim of this study is to present the best alternative transportation logistics to carry these tanks in a military organization, from a given scenario, with lower cost and / or time. To achieve the goal consultations through interviews and correspondence with experts in transport, military transport and armored vehicles. The consultations allowed to define the main advantages and disadvantages of transportation modes and factors relevant to transport armored vehicles, permitting the formulation of the transport network and development of an instrument feasibility of transportation modes (check list) to be applied to routes of transport. A problem of transporting armored vehicles, from a hypothetical scenario, was solved by a mathematical model with the objective of minimizing cost or time. It was concluded that the mathematical model is a tool that can aid decision making in the transport of armored vehicles, but the best choice will depend on the proper analysis of the modes of transportation available and the correct formulation and application of the instrument feasibility of transportation modes.

Approved for public release, distribution is unlimited / The delivery of supply in combat operations is very important and often results in success or failure of a mission. This activity, as well as other transportation problems, has traditionally been modeled using global optimization techniques, such as linear programming. However, the goal of this thesis is to examine the feasibility of an agent-based solution to study the movement of material through a road network. The requirement is to build an agent-based system that finds the optimal route through a given road network and is capable of adapting to disruptions introduced to the network and then find alternative routes through the network. The agents act from a local perspective, and can represent more realistically the decisions being made throughout the delivery process. This thesis implements an analysis environment for road networks and develops an agent-based model to build truck-driver agents that are capable of delivering supplies through a changing road network. / Captain, German Army
