Abstract:

We construct an optimization model for similar rectangular freights loaded freight trains with pallets based on railway freight loading constraints. We initially solve pallets layout of carriage bottom with improved twodimensional layout optimization algorithm. We further determine optimal stacking pallet layers in a carriage, and obtain optimal loading scheme. Instance analytical results show that the model is effective for solving railway similar pallet applied freight loading problem.

Key words: railway transportation, pallet-suited freight, optimization, loading scheme
