Abstract

Reasonable siting layout of reserve emergency supplies plays a critical role in rapid response and accurate rescue after disaster. People’s life safety and health, as well as the psychological satisfaction brought by the government’s excellent emergency rescue level, is an important guarantee for maintaining social stability and sustainable development. Based on the coverage model, considering demand graduation, this paper develops a bi-objective optimization model to determine the optimal location plan of graduated supplies by maximizing the rescue satisfaction and minimizing the number of warehouses. A heuristic multi-center clustering location algorithm is designed to solve the model. This model is applied to the prepositioning of emergency supplies in an earthquake affected area in Sichuan province, China to verify the effectiveness of the model and algorithm. Finally, the paper discusses the influence of demand graduation on the location of emergency supplies. The results show that reasonable location planning of different levels of supplies can effectively improve the rescue satisfaction.
