| Authors | Title | Model objective | Tool/Methods | Major findings |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ukkusuri and Yushimito (2008) | “Location routing approach for the humanitarian prepositioning problem” | Minimizing the fixed costs and the routing costs and maximizing the probability of the inventory to reach all the demand points | A combination of the most reliable path and integer programming model | The proposed method can reduce the problem complexity and solve the problem efficiently |
| Lin et al. (2011) | “A logistic model for emergency supply of critical items in the aftermath of a disaster” | Minimizing the total unsatisfied demand, the total travel time and the difference in the satisfaction between the demand nodes | A genetic algorithm based-heuristic and decomposition and assignment heuristic | The proposed model performs well in the disaster relief operation, where prioritizing delivery is important for the emergency supply of critical items |
| Rath and Gutjahr (2014) | “A math-heuristic for the warehouse location-routing problem in disaster relief” | Minimizing the total fixed costs and operative costs and maximizing the covered demand | Mixed-integer linear programming and math heuristic technique based on the adaptive ε-constraint algorithm | The results of the math heuristic technique are compared to those obtained from an application of the NSGA-II metaheuristic |
| Zhang et al. (2018) | “Sustainable multi-depot emergency facilities location-routing problem with uncertain information” | Minimizing travel time, emergency travel relief costs and carbon dioxide emissions | A hybrid intelligent algorithm that integrates simulation and a genetic algorithm | Illustrating the optimization ideas and robustness and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm |
| Liu et al. (2019) | “Location-routing problem for relief distribution in the early post-earthquake stage from the perspective of fairness” | Minimizing the maximum loss of demand node, the total loss of demand node and the maximum time required for the demand node to receive relief | Lexicographic order object optimization method with a hybrid heuristic algorithm | A proposed hybrid heuristic algorithm not only quickly solve the problem but also take fairness and utility into consideration |
| Alinaghian et al. (2019) | “A mathematical model for location of temporary relief centers and dynamic routing of aerial rescue vehicles” | Minimizing the arrival time at the last designated temporary relief center | A hybrid metaheuristic algorithm based on scatter search combined with variable neighborhood search | The proposed algorithm performs well after being compared with an exact method, scatter search and genetic algorithm |
| Ghasemi et al. (2019) | “Uncertain multi-objective multi-commodity multi-period multi-vehicle location-allocation model for earthquake evacuation planning” | Minimizing the amount of shortage of relief supplies and the total costs consisting of the cost of establishing relief facilities and the cost of human casualties | Modified multiple-objective particle swarm optimization, non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II and ε-constraint method | The three combined methods successfully solve the model. The sensitivity analysis shows that the increase in the number of affected people will lead to an increase in the accommodation centers |
| Khorsi et al. (2020) | “A multi-objective multi-period for humanitarian relief logistics with split delivery and multiple uses of vehicles” | Minimizing the total amount of unsatisfied demand, the total travel time, the sum of the absolute deviations of a fraction of unsatisfied demands | An augmented ε-constraint method (AUGMECON) | The Pareto solutions generated by AUGMECON suggest that the simultaneous consideration of three objectives will improve the effectiveness of distribution efforts |
| Current paper | “Cross-evaluation based-super efficiency DEA approach to designing disaster recovery center location-allocation-routing network schemes” | Minimizing the total cost, total routing distance and the longest delivery distance. Maximizing the expected demand covered | Goal programming and cross-evaluation based-super-efficiency data envelopment analysis | The proposed approach helps decision-makers design efficient disaster recovery center location-allocation-routing network schemes |
