“…Their objective is to minimize the number of hubs and robot mileage required, while respecting the robots' maximum range. Poeting et al [2019b] and Poeting et al [2019a] optimally solve an MIP for truck tours visiting hubs and customers and a schedule of pendulum robot tours from these hubs to customers. Sonneberg et al [2019] minimize the costs of tours for robots with several compartments applying an MIP.…”

“…In this paper, we implement a variant of the static hub concept. Poeting et al (2019) consider a combination of truck routing and static hubs for robot deliveries. In their approach, only a small percent (0-3%) of parcels is delivered by robots directly from robot hubs, which house only one robot.…”

Since delivery robots share sidewalks with pedestrians, it may be beneficial to choose paths for them that avoid zones with high pedestrian density. In this paper, we investigate a robot-based last-mile delivery problem considering path flexibility given the presence of zones with varying pedestrian level of service (LOS). Pedestrian LOS is a measure of pedestrian flow density. We model this new problem with stochastic travel times and soft customer time windows. The model includes an objective that reflects customer service quality based on early and late arrivals. The heuristic solution approach uses the minimum travel time paths from different LOS zones (path flexibility). We demonstrate that the presence of pedestrian zones leads to alternative path choices in 30% of all cases. In addition, we find that extended time windows may help increase service quality in zones with high pedestrian density by up to 40%.

“…Außerdem werden Modellsimulationen zur Abschätzung der Effekte auf Energieverbrauch, Emissionen oder Service Level durchgeführt (vgl. Poeting et al 2019a;Poeting et al 2019b;Figliozzi und Jennings 2020). Ebenso findet der rechtliche Rahmen für automatisierte Transportroboter Beachtung (vgl.…”
