Simplifications and assumptions of the model Sample Clauses

Simplifications and assumptions of the model. At this stage of building the model we have decided to make some simplifications to the model in order to handle some of the complexity of the problem. There has been a question of what aspects we firstly wish to research and what is of the best interest for the company. We have assumed that an efficient employment of the fleet of vessels is one of the major problems to handle. In regards to this we have considered it to be important to have a longer planning horizon than it is present, in order to better schedule the fleet of vessels. When considering the complexity of the model described in the introduction of the model, we decided to simplify some aspects of the full scale problem. We have left out the possibility of handling different contract types in the model, there are no fixed costs incurring by choosing vessel. Furthermore, the costs of travelling with a vessel are only dependent on the duration from the productions sites to the customers. Costs of inventory are not considered in the model, because we have regarded the costs of inventory to be irrelevant to the main objective of the maritime distribution problem. The number of orders on a shipment is limited to one, and since an order is attached to a customer location we have excluded the possibility of delivering to multiple customers at one shipment. However, the model is open for an order with multiple products, but this is simplified to only be capacitated by the total tonnage carried on the shipment for the entire order.
