Approximate Models And Solution Approaches For The Vehicle Routing Problem With Multiple Use Of Vehicles And Time Windows

In this study we discuss the Vehicle Routing Problem with multiple use of vehicles (VRPM). In this variant of the routing problem the vehicles may replenish at any time at the depot.
We present a detailed review of existing literature and propose two mathematical models to solve the VRPM. For these two models and their several variants we provide computational
results based on the test problems taken from the literature. We also discuss a case study in which we are simultaneously dealing with side constraints such as time windows, working hour limits, backhaul customers and a heterogeneous vehicle fleet.
