Identifying critical facilities in hub-and-spoke networks : a hub interdiction median problem

Auteur :
LEI, T.L.

Description :
A large number of demands exist to travel from origins to destinations via a set of intermediate transshipment nodes. These intermediate nodes can be lost. The article presents a hub interdiction median problem. It can be used to identify the set of critical facilities in a hub-and-spoke system that leads to the maximal disruption of the system's service. The new model is formulated using integer linear programming. Special constraints are constructed to account for origin-to-destination demand following the least-cost route via the remaining hubs.
