We study the problem of finding hazmat road transportation paths minimizing both the total risk of hazmat shipments and the total transportation cost, meanwhile guaranteeing a certain level of risk equity over the population. To ensure the selection of a set of paths that also guarantee an equitable spread of the risk over the population, we introduce a new similarity index. The problem is mathematically formulated and is heuristically solved, and the proposed model and algorithm are evaluated on realistic problem instances.

Abstract
We study the problem of finding hazmat road transportation paths minimizing both the total risk of hazmat shipments and the total transportation cost, meanwhile guaranteeing a certain level of risk equity over the population. To ensure the selection of a set of paths that also guarantee an equitable spread of the risk over the population, we introduce a new similarity index. The problem is mathematically formulated and is heuristically solved, and the proposed model and algorithm are evaluated on realistic problem instances.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
