Fuzzy Optimization about Container Shipping on Sea-Bound
Publication: International Conference on Transportation Engineering 2009
Abstract
We use fuzzy program to research container shipping on sea-bound in the paper. In the modal, the objective function is to maximize the profit of container shipping. The total profit is equal to the profit from the heavy container shipping substracting the empty/heavy container shipping cost. The constraints of the modal include meeting the need of both heavy and empty containers. The requirements of empty/heavy containers are fuzzy because they are uncertain for being affected by all kinds of factors and we usually find no statistic rule in them. The limits to volume and weight for a line are included in the constraint of the modal. We transfer the fuzzy programming modal to a liner programming ones, and then we adopt Lingo 9.0 to solve the modal. We provide an effective modal to a shipping company by use of the modal in the paper.
