Bi Objective Optimization Genetic Algorithm for Locating Concrete Mixing Plants

The location of the concrete mixing plants (LCMP) is a kind of combinatorial optimization problem. The reasonable locations will significantly improve the quality and reduce costs of the construction companies. LCMP has two objectives. One is to optimize the number of mixing plants, and the other is to optimize the distance between the mixing plants and the construction areas. In this paper, a location model based on concrete mixing plants has been built. A hybrid algorithm combining genetic al
