Abstract
The distribution of fresh products is an urgent problem to be solved. In this paper, on the basis of considering the problem of vehicle path planning in the logistics distribution process, the distribution of fresh products by electric refrigerated vehicles is added. Considering that the electricity of refrigerated trucks will be consumed by low-temperature restrictions in addition to being used for vehicle driving, the vehicle routing problem of electric refrigerated trucks is constructed with the goal of minimizing the total cost of fixed costs, power consumption costs, cargo damage costs, and penalty costs. And by improving the transition probability and pheromone update of the traditional ant colony algorithm, an improved ant colony algorithm is proposed to solve the model. Through the analysis of the improved ant colony algorithm and the traditional ant colony algorithm to solve the model, it can be seen that the improved ant colony algorithm proposed in this paper is effective and superior in solving the path planning problem of electric refrigerated vehicles.
