  • Abstract
    Traditional algorithms of VRP often did not consider the loading rate of vehicle, which will partially effects the fuel consumption of the vehicle. So if considering the fuel consumption, there needs a new algorithm to find the optional route of VRP with lowest fuel consumption. Then the genetic algorithm of the model was designed and solved. The simulation result showed that the algorithm is a good way for fuel consumption objective optimization of VRP.
