Abstract: This paper presents a novel two-stage robust optimization model for designing a dependable logistics network that integrates evolutionary computation techniques. The proposed model considers both the normal and disrupted states of the logistics network and seeks to reduce the overall network cost and operating time in different disruption situations. The challenge is a multi-objective optimization problem addressed using a hybrid evolutionary method that combines the advantages of the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm with the large neighborhood search heuristic. Numerical experiments are conducted on various test instances to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed model and algorithm. The results show that the proposed algorithm can generate robust and reliable logistics network designs resilient to disruptions and uncertainties, leading to significant improvements in logistics performance and cost savings compared to traditional methods.
