To address the challenges of dynamic routing in the last-mile transport logistics, an adaptive method has been developed for solving a multi-criteria dynamic vehicle routing problem with static time windows, taking into account the actual configuration of the urban road network and the non-stationary traffic dynamics on its sections. At the same time, the method enables the use of consolidated real-time data on the dynamic characteristics of traffic flow on sections of the transport network from any sources available at the time of optimization (e.g., GIS, road sensors, mobile devices, etc.). The results of simulation studies using the ant colony...

In this study is presented an analytical mathematical model developed to determine the forces arising during the active penetration of machine working bodies into sticky rocks. The methodology is based on the method of element-by-element calculation of resistances, where the contact zone is divided into discrete prisms of material. As a result of the analysis, a final formula for the total penetration force is derived. This formula shows the dependence of the resistance force on the dimensions of the tool (thickness, depth, angle of sharpening) and the physical characteristics of the rock (internal friction, adhesion, stickiness). The model serves...
