Repair Crew Scheduling Considering Variable Disaster Aspects
Abstract
Human beings have suffered from disasters continuously, therefore, the post-disaster efforts to reduce additional damages have been widely conducted. In this study, we focused on the repair crew scheduling to set a plan for repairing destroyed roads. Rural areas were considered because of limited link members of supply chain networks, and rural isolation caused by road destruction is the main concern of this study. To reflect the intrinsic nature of a disaster in the short-term, additional damages and variable damage rates were considered. The repair crew scheduling problem considering variable disaster aspects was proposed to minimize total damages caused by isolation. A small-scale experiment was conducted and the result showed that our model can be used to effectively reduce further damages compared to previous research.
