Application of a generalized bottleneck routing problem to the task of adhering to acceptable doses of radiation during the dismantling of radiation hazardous objects

Abstract

The paper considers the bottleneck routing problem, the prototype of which is the task of minimizing the radiation dose of workers during the performance of work related to disassembly of radiation-hazardous equipment. The authors proposed an optimal algorithm for solving the problem, which is based on the dynamic programming method. Its effectiveness is illustrated by example. © 2019, IFAC (International Federation of Automatic Control) Hosting by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
