Abstract

The growing popularity of online shopping in China has promoted the logistics and transport industry. Automobile is the most frequently used, most efficient, and most convenient means in medium- and short-distance road transport. China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing pointed out by the statistics that road transport freight by automobile accounts for about 80% of the total freight of logistics systems nationwide, while showing a rising trend. By applying technology in management of vehicles for logistics and distribution, this paper built a mathematical model for vehicle management from economic, technical, and management perspectives, using economic and rational vehicle configuration and minimal operating costs to ensure completion of deliveries, thereby improving the efficiency of automobile transport and logistics industry.
