A Comparative Study of Optimum Solution between Fractional Transportation and Fractional Transhipment Problem
R. Sophia Porchelvi, A. Anna Sheela
Abstract: In this paper, a comparison of optimum solution between transportation and transhipment problem is discussed whose objective function is fractional and the objective is to minimize the total actual transportation cost to total standard transportation cost. here, the fractional transportation problem is converted to an equivalent fractional transhipment problem and then solved by using the method of fractional transportation problem and concluded that in some situations, fractional transhipment will be less expensive than fractional transportation by means of numerical example
Keywords: Fractional Transportation, Fractional Transhipment, Reduction of cost
