Abstract

In order to successfully complete the ironwork combined transportation of dangerous goods, this paper will carry out relevant research, the main purpose of the research is to establish the optimization model of the ironwork combined transportation of dangerous goods. In the research, the process and particularity of the rail-highway combined transportation of dangerous goods are discussed first, then the model hypothesis is put forward based on the main problems in the rail-highway combined transportation of dangerous goods, and then the optimization algorithm is proposed for the model hypothesis. By using the algorithm in this paper, the model of rail-highway combined transportation of dangerous goods can be linearly optimized. The optimized model can improve the stability of rail-railway combined transportation, reduce the risk probability and influence on the one hand, and guarantee the smooth completion of cargo transportation on the other hand.
