Abstract

The road network accessibility is an important issue for earthquake relief operations, since several roads may be damaged obstructing the access to certain areas. This work proposes a mathematical model and two heuristics for the road repairing work-troops scheduling in order to increase accessibility to the population as fast as possible after a major earthquake. Solutions for randomly generated instances given by the model are used to evaluate the heuristics' performance. The heuristics are tested on a graph with more than ten thousand vertices and edges from Port-au-Prince 2010 earthquake in Haiti.
