A method for inter-city express delivery based on a modular bus system

Abstract

The application discloses a same-city express delivery method based on a modular bus system. According to the destination of goods, the system generates an optimal nearby ordering vehicle, only one vehicle is allowed to transport one order of goods at the same time, and the goods are delivered to the destination by the same vehicle all the way; the turning direction of the vehicle is immediately locked, and the turning direction is locked as the turning direction of the shortest path of the goods at each intersection; at each intersection, a transfer optimization is carried out, the locked turning direction of the goods transport vehicle is set as one of the constraint conditions, and the planned turning direction of all vehicles is optimized with the target of minimizing the total number of passenger transfers; finally, the optimal transfer of passengers is realized under the condition of transporting goods; after a series of intersections, the goods transport vehicle delivers the goods to the destination and automatically unloads them into the platform goods storage box. The application can realize the same-city express delivery of goods while transporting passengers by the modular bus, and expands the function of the modular bus.
