Logistics for the construction of transmission systems - Bangkok : Asian Institute of Technology, 1985 - 38, M-2 p - Research studies project report ; no. IE-85-16 . - Asian Institute of Technology. Research studies project report ; no. IE-85-16 .
A research study submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering, School of Engineering and Technology
Research Studies Project Report (M. Eng.) - Asian Institute of Technology, 1985
This research deals with a transportation problem of material parts in the field of construction of transmission systems, with particular reference to the Transmission and Distribution Con struction (TDC) office of Taiwan Power Company (Taipower) . The problem · could be identified as a large "capacitated plant location problem". However, it was solved by a hierarchical ap proach, i.e., first, the parts allocation to each warehouse is deterimined by a mixed integer linear programming model; second, the minimum number of trucks and the specific load of each truck for each warehouse are determined by set covering model . A heuristic method and exact method for the set covering problem were studied, and it- was found that the heuristic method performed satisfactorily in this context. A case study of a transmission line construction project was made, showing the usefulness of the overall approach.
