Robust storage loading problems with stacking and payload constraints

  • We consider storage loading problems where items with uncertain weights have to be loaded into a storage area, taking into account stacking and payload constraints. Following the robust optimization paradigm, we propose strict and adjustable optimization models for finite and interval-based uncertainties. To solve these problems, exact decomposition and heuristic solution algorithms are developed. For strict robustness, we also present a compact formulation based on a characterization of worst-case scenarios. Computational results show that computation times and algorithm gaps are reasonable for practical applications. Furthermore, we find that the robustness concepts show different potential depending on the type of data being used.
