报告摘要：This talk discusses some opportunities and challenges associated with planning last-mile freight delivery systems with autonomous UAVs. We first briefly show how to minimize the last-mile delivery cost and energy consumption by UAVs, with explicit consideration of mid-air congestion and continuous traffic equilibriumin large-scale operations.This talk then focuses on planning UAV delivery systems that are based on stationary or mobile launching sites. In the latter, a truck carries goods and a fleet of drones around the neighborhoods of customers, while the drones are dispatched from the truck to perform the last-mile delivery. Partial differential equations (PDEs) are formulated to describe the optimal drone routing and truck-drone synchronization strategies under aerial traffic congestion. Customized solution algorithms will be briefly described. The PDE solution is then used to evaluate the operational cost of UAV delivery systems and further to provide the basis for optimizing service design decisions. Numerical experiments are conducted to show the applicability of the proposed modeling framework, and to draw managerial insights for logistics carriers.
