Mathematical Model of the Traveling Salesman Problem with Delivery and Draft Limit

Öz

In this paper, we determine the order of the ports to be reached with the help of graph theory and establish Hamilton cycles. We obtain sub-solutions and solution sets with the help of these cycles. Moreover, we prove some relations about the draft limit and the demand of the port. Finally we present some examples.
