Abstract
Last-mile logistics has gained increasing attention in the last few years. Driven by the rise of e-commerce and the growing demand for fast deliveries, companies are exploring several strategies to optimize last-mile operations. One of the most promising options in city logistics is the truck-and-robot concept that involves a truck transporting parcels and autonomous robots. This delivery system exploits a combination of drop-off points and robot depots. When a truck arrives at a drop-off point, robots are released directly from the truck to autonomously deliver goods. On the contrary, if a depot is reached, parcels are loaded on the robots, that are stored and charged in that location, so that they can be delivered from the depot.
In this thesis, three delivery models have been simulated and compared in order to determine the most effective approach
