Abstract
Efficient relief supply delivery within the golden 72 hours after a disaster is critical to reducing casualties. For medium-to-large unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), pre-flight preparation—including payload mounting, center-of-gravity confirmation, flight route distribution, and link/airspace checks—is abstracted as response levels. Traditional scheduling methods often assume that UAVs are always on standby; however, maintaining the highest response level continuously is costly and unsustainable. This paper proposes a response-level–permutation coupling model for multi-UAV material delivery scheduling after disaster and designs a multi-start permutation neighborhood search (MPNS) algorithm. MPNS encodes task service order as a full permutation, uses a high-fidelity disaster simulation as the decoder, and jointly searches task permutations and active response-level control parameters. Comparative experiments against random, greedy, and genetic baselines, together with time-window sensitivity and ablation studies, demonstrate the effectiveness of MPNS in improving urgency-weighted task completion while explicitly balancing response-level operating cost.
A structured multi-UAV framework that separates mission optimisation into spatial, temporal, and safety layers is presented, indicating that integrating spatial planning, computation control, and safety coordination within a clearly separated layered architecture can provide an effective solution for multi-UAV disaster...

Efficient emergency distribution is critical for European disaster response. In Europe, although truck-UAV systems provide a flexible solution to logistics bottlenecks, the continent’s coastal regions and expansive plains experience highly volatile wind conditions, which expose UAV operations to substantial uncertainti...

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) inspection of mountainous expressway networks involves continuously distributed tasks, coordination among multiple base stations, and uncertain flight time and energy consumption induced by no-fly-zone detours. This study develops an offline robust planning framework that jointly determine...

Efficient urban UAV logistics require deep synergy between task allocation and 3D path planning, which traditional methods often decouple. Traditional ground-based wheeled logistics is constrained by road traffic efficiency, leading to frequent delivery delays and continuously rising costs. Additionally, existing studi...

Damaged transportation infrastructure and delayed, making timely emergency response difficult. To address this, we develop a multifunctional UAV location–routing optimization model with time-window and energy constraints, where UAVs perform both relief delivery and damage reconnaissance. We propose an LLM-based adaptiv...
