Abstract
It is important to plan a reasonable working-area layout for railway Logistics Park which mainly depends on newly-built or rebuilt large-scale railway freight station. In this paper, a linear programming model for railway logistics park layout problem is proposed. The objective function is to achieve the maximum total compositive relativity, considering the effect of internal and external facilities and traffic arteries. A genetic algorithm to find solution for the model is proposed, which is based on slicing-tree structure coding and matrix presentation. Finally, the experimental results of XinJin logistic park show that the proposed approach is feasible. It can get excellent reasonable layout solutions and has high computing efficiency.
