Metaheuristic Optimization for Logistics in Natural Disasters,resent paper is twofold. First, it introduces a multi-period model aiming to minimize the shortages of different relief products in a number of affected areas. The relief products are transported via multiple modes of transportation from dispatch centers to these areas, while adhering to traffic res

Tsunami of the Meteoric Origin,as assessing the parameters of the tsunami caused by an asteroid entering the water are derived. The results of the numerical simulation of the effect of the angle of entry of the body into water on the characteristics of the resulting waves in the near field are given. The model based on the Navier

The Donation Collections Routing Problem, response phase immediately following large-scale disaster events. In particular, catastrophic events are often characterized by a dramatic surge of unsolicited donations and spontaneous volunteers that pose significant logistical problems for officials, and also inhibit the organized relief efforts

Freight Service Provision for Disaster Relief: A Competitive Network Model with Computations,in determining its most cost-effective deliveries of needed supplies in a crisis setting. Multiple freight service providers are engaged in competition to acquire the business of carrying the supplies in the amounts desired to the destinations. We describe the objective functions faced by the variou
