L'optimisation des tournées de livraisons se ramène essentiellement à un problème de voyageur de commerce (TSP) dans un graphe où les sommets correspondent aux points à livrer, et les coûts des arcs aux temps de trajet entre deux points. Le TSP dépendant du temps (TD-TSP) est une extension du TSP dans laquelle le coût d'un arc dépend de l'heure de ...
Dans les années 1960, la capacité des plus grands porte-conteneurs se limitait à 1 000 EVP(1). En 40 ans, cette capacité a été multipliée par plus de 20. Les économies d'échelle, qui se traduisent par la réduction du coût de transport à l'EVP transporté, sont la pierre angulaire de cette course menée par les armateurs et qui pour l'instant semble s...
This paper gives an overview of official monetary valuations of the prevention of road crashes, road fatalities and injuries in 31 European countries. The values have been made comparable by converting them to Euro in 2015-values, adjusted by purchasing power parities. The monetary valuation of preventing a fatality varies from 0.7 to 3.0 million E...
