Scenarios for sensitivity analysis.

ScenarioDescriptionDetails

CGVRP A1Vehicle capacity impactUsing 111 customers, 21 AFSs and vehicle capacity increase from 1,000 to 6,000 in 1,000 increments

CGVRP A2Increasing the number of customers impactIncrease the number of customers from 200 to 500 in increments of 100; add random customer locations; keep AFS locations fixed and vehicle capacity at 6,000

CGVRP A3Increasing AFS availability impactSimilar to GVVRP A1, with adding AFS locations, it
increased in increments of 2 from 22 to 28 and vehicle capacity at 6000

CGVRP A4Driving range limit impactSimilar to GVVRP A1, driving range increases in 100 mile increments from 200 miles to 500 miles and vehicle capacity at 6,000
