Elementary solution to the Jeep problem with one chief and three supporting vehicles
Original language description
The jeep problem is a well-known logistics problem. A jeep must cross a desert wider than it can travel on one tank of fuel with the help of optimal arrangement of fuel dumps along the route. The available resources refer, especially, to solutions of two basic variants - the single jeep problem and the convoy of jeeps problem. This paper deals with one modification of the jeep problem with 4 vehicles and n cans of fuel (n>4). Elementary solutions to this modification are derived for small amounts n of cans of fuel. General solution using harmonic numbers is also stated. Numerical solutions for some amounts of fuel and units of distance, computed by the computer algebra system Maple, are presented, too.
