Designing an Energy-Efficient Transportation Network to Transport Perishable Crops: An Aggregated VRP and X-means Clustering Approach.

Almost all perishable crops deteriorate due to improper and tardy transportation and storage. Vehicle Routing Problem, or VRP, might be of great aid since it takes into account a number of aspects of any transportation and storage issues and optimizes them in such a way as to reduce the overall cost of the carrier. This study attempts to widen the scope of the commonly used VRP model by including traffic and energy consumption features and transforming it into the Aggregated Vehicle Routing Problem (AVRP).

Maturation of the adolescent brain.

Adolescence is the developmental epoch during which children become adults - intellectually, physically, hormonally, and socially. Adolescence is a tumultuous time, full of changes and transformations. The pubertal transition to adulthood involves both gonadal and behavioral maturation.
