| Tiivistelmä: | It may be advantageous to employ consolidation terminals. Economies of scale in costs can be exploited. It may be possible for sources to ship in bulk to terminals. Shipments can be broken down and combined. This freight transport problem is addressed. Algorithms are described to determine the patterns of shipments from many sources to many destinations when several consolidation terminals are available. Concave shipping cost functions are used. Inventory holding cost can be incurred at terminals. This can be modelled as a type of concave cost multiproduct network flow problem. It is shown how to solve this problem optimally if either the source-to-terminal or the terminal-to-destination cost is linear. |
