The optimization of the "UAV-vehicle" joint delivery route considering mountainous cities.

ABSTRACT: As a new transportation tool, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), has a broad application prospect in logistics distribution, especially for mountainous cities with complex terrain. Due to the limited delivery conditions of UAV, considering the advantages of traditional vehicle delivery, this paper proposes a joint delivery mode of UAV and vehicle, and designs three steps for the joint delivery problem of single UAV and single vehicle: first, mark all special nodes; Secondly, the route of UAV and vehicle is planned; Finally, the total delivery route is optimized to minimize the total delivery distance. Genetic algorithm and single distribution terminal optimization are used to solve the problem, and the joint delivery in this paper is compared with the traditional vehicle delivery and the indep
