Abstract

The article deals with general conditions of modeling the supply of goods through the terminal. Parameters of goods dispatch from the terminal are set. The parameters are set in accordance with customer demand.
We consider the limits on the minimum and maximum possible supply intervals that are associated with an acceptable rate of movement of vehicles along the route.
Mathematical models for calculating the parameters for the supply of goods through the terminals, taking into account the ratio of the intensity of the supply to the terminal and the intensity of the dispatch of goods from the terminal are given. The expressions obtained allow us to assess the volume of reserves previously accumulated on the terminal needed to ensure the smooth delivery of the goods, as well as possible volume of surplus stocks of goods that require storage during the period of shipment from the terminal.
On the basis of models developed calculations of parameters of supply on the route Moscow-Chelyabinsk are performed. The obtained results of calculations show consistency with actual data of previously accumulated surplus of goods at terminals.
With similar challenges one may face at chain management. The results of calculations are also to be used to estimate the costs of storage of goods in stock at the terminal.
