An optimisation approach to materials handling in surface mines

In the surface mining industry the equipment selection problem involves choosing a fleet of trucks and loaders that have the capacity to move the materials specified in the mine plan. The optimisation problem is to select these fleets such that the overall cost of materials handling is minimised. Th...
