초록

Empty moves are necessary when there are imbalances among transportation demands from source locations to destination locations and the transportation demands require empty equipment that must be supplied to source locations. When the amount of the inflow exceeds that of the outflow or the amount of the outflow exceeds that of the inflow, repositioning empty equipment is necessary. Examples of the empty equipment are containers, chassis, and pallets. This paper addresses how to estimate the empty moves on several typical transportation networks. Types of transportation networks considered are chain, tree, cycle, tree of cycles, and hybrid networks. Simple procedures are suggested for determining the optimal empty flows. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate procedures in this paper.
