文摘A constrained multi-objective optimization model for the low-carbon vehicle routing problem(VRP)is established.A carbon emission measurement method considering various practical factors is introduced.It minimizes both the total carbon emissions and the longest time consumed by the sub-tours,subject to the limited number of available vehicles.According to the characteristics of the model,a region enhanced discrete multi-objective fireworks algorithm is proposed.A partial mapping explosion operator,a hybrid mutation for adjusting the sub-tours,and an objective-driven extending search are designed,which aim to improve the convergence,diversity,and spread of the non-dominated solutions produced by the algorithm,respectively.Nine low-carbon VRP instances with different scales are used to verify the effectiveness of the new strategies.Furthermore,comparison results with four state-of-the-art algorithms indicate that the proposed algorithm has better performance of convergence and distribution on the low-carbon VRP.It provides a promising scalability to the problem size.
