- Abstract:
- The use of drones in various fields is increasing. One of the applications that can be mentioned for drones is humanitarian areas can include drug supply chains, blood supply chains, relief chains, and the like. The use of these unmanned vehicles in humanitarian areas poses legal challenges compared to other areas. This study aimed to investigate drones following a disaster, the essential role of UAVs, and a vehicle to carry out relief operations. Following a disaster, infrastructure can be severely damaged, and the destruction of infrastructure can reduce the efficiency of land vehicles. In this research, “drone and vehicle routing problem” have been done to provide relief and minimize the total service time to the demand nodes. The operational constraints of the drones, such as capacity and energy consumption considered. Drones and vehicles carry out relief operations independently. For more emergency areas, short and narrow time windows are considered. In this study, a mixed-integer programming model was introduced. The problem was solved for two hypothetical scenarios with a solver in small dimensions. In one scenario, all routes are available for both vehicles. In other scenario, some routes are unavailable for the land vehicle. A meta-heuristic algorithm was also used to solve the problem on a larger scale
