“…A large number of studies carried out in recent years are related to the optimization of the distribution of cargo flows, including those considered within the framework of multimodal transportation systems [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. This takes into account the drastic transformations that have taken place in the transport industry and associated with the development of the transport services market, as well as focused on a more complete fulfillment of the conditions put forward by customers.…”

“…In [8], methods for calculating the location of hubs are considered to minimize the economic costs of transporting goods from the manufacturer to the transshipment point. The problem belongs to a mixed integer programming problem, but due to the complexity of the problem being solved, the authors propose a heuristic approach.…”

An integrated approach is proposed in the study of rational schemes for the distribution of cargo flows at a regional transport loop for multimodal transportation, considered within the framework of an oligopolistic market. A technique has been developed for the parallel application of two approaches, differing in their mathematical nature, to the issues of increasing the economic efficiency of these transportations. The results obtained by the previously developed method of economic and geographical delimitation of «influence areas» of loading stations serve as a justification for the correctness of the results obtained by using an algorithm based on the Pareto optimization of the freight transportation process. Rational variants for organizing the freight transportation, taking into account time and cost indicators, have been obtained. The system of analytical calculations is used as a software tool to obtain a mathematically sound and transport-logistic diversified model of a regional oligopolistic freight market.

“…Similar to our heuristic approach [10] determines an near optimal number and locations of transshipment hubs (strategic level) in a supply network by starting from a network in which all potential hubs are present and successively dropping the hubs that generate the largest cost decrease upon deletion. The process terminates whenever deleting a hub does not significantly affect the costs.…”

We consider a third party logistics service provider (LSP), who faces the problem of distributing different products from suppliers to consumers having no control on supply and demand. In a third party set-up, the operations of transport and storage are run as a black box for a fixed price. Thus the incentive for an LSP is to reduce its operational costs. The objective of this paper is to find an efficient network topology on a tactical level, which still satisfies the service level agreements on the operational level. We develop an optimization method, which constructs a tactical network topology based on the operational decisions resulting from a given model predictive control (MPC) policy. Experiments suggest that such a topology typically requires only a small fraction of all possible links. As expected, the found topology is sensitive to changes in supply and demand averages. Interestingly, the found topology appears to be robust to changes in second order moments of supply and demand distributions.
