contents A mixed integer programming approach for freight railcar distribution Marcello Calado Júlio Barros Ernesto Nobre Bruno Prata Ingeniería Logistics Wagons allocation Railroad planning Mixed integer programming The attendance of the demand for freight transport is related to the process of allocation of the wagons that in turn is associated with the way in which the decision is taken. The distribution of wagons to the shipment terminals depends on the planning as well as on movement of the empty wagons. In addition, the trips of the empty wagons have the major financial impact on the railroad system. In such a way, an efficient mechanism of wagon distribution is vital to the railroads, because it provides important operational profits and of costs. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the problem related to the distribution of the load wagons and to develop a mathematical model that can propose an optimal scheduling of the wagons. 2017 artículo científico 0103-6513 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=396751070002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3967/396751070002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3967/396751070002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3967/396751070002/396751070002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3967/396751070002/movil 10.1590/0103-6513.203815 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3967 Production application/pdf Associação Brasileira de Engenharia de Produção Production (Brasil) Vol.27
