This paper proposes a variant of the well-known capacitated vehicle routing problem that models the routing of vehicles in the cash-in-transit industry by introducing a risk constraint. In the Risk-constrained Cash-in-Transit Vehicle Routing Problem (RCTVRP), the risk of being robbed, which is...

In this paper we defi?ne a new problem, the aim of which is to fi?nd a set of k dissimilar alternative solutions for a vehicle routing problem (VRP) on a single instance. ?This problem has several practical applications in the cash-in-transit sector and in the transportation of hazardous...

This paper proposes a variant of the well-known capacitated vehicle routing problem that models the problem of routing vehicles in the cash-in-transit industry by introducing a risk constraint. In this problem, which is called the risk-constrained cash-in-transit vehicle routing problem...

In this paper, we present a variant of the vehicle routing problem (VRP) to increase security in the cash-in-transit sector. A speci?c index is used to quantify the exposure of a vehicle to the risk of being robbed along its route. In addition, the problem is subjected to a traditional capacity...

In this paper, we propose a new metaheuristic to solve the Risk constrained Cash-in-Transit Vehicle Routing Problem (rctvrp). The rctvrp is a variant of the well-known capacitated vehicle routing problem and models the problem of routing vehicles in the cash-in-transit sector. In the rctvrp, the...

This paper proposes a variant of the Vehicle Routing Problem in which a particular kind of risk constraint has been introduced to model the problem of routing vehicles in the cash-in-transit industry and a hard time window constraint, with no waiting times, delimits the customer's visit within a...

Real-life utility networks such as smart grids, pipelines and water networks can be exposed to safety and security related risk. Preventative measures can be applied to mitigate such risks that may result in service interruptions for the users of these networks. An index of (dis)connectivity,...

We consider a routing problem for ambulances in a disaster response scenario, in which a large number of injured people require medical aid at the same time. The ambulances are used to carry medical personnel and patients. We distinguish two groups of patients: slightly injured people who can be...

In this paper we propose a decision model aimed at increasing security in a utility network (e.g., smart grid, water network). The network consists of edges that might be a viable target for terrorists depending on several factors such as geographical location, accessibility of the network, the...
