Method for improving the routing of a fleet of modular electric vehicles

摘要: The invention provides a method for improving a delivery schedule for a fleet of modular electric vehicles, wherein each vehicle comprises a propulsion module having an electric propulsion system and a battery, and a set of trailer modules having a load capacity and a battery for providing electricity to said electric propulsion system, wherein each trailer module has an associated destination location and a destination time window. The proposed method is remarkable in that it is capable of taking into account multiple system constraints including random travel times using a genetic solving algorithm, and in that it is able to adapt the computation of delivery schedules to observed realizations of previously computed delivery schedules.
