| Nowadays, due to population increase and expansion of the transportation networks, the monitoring of this network, control, and prevention of accidents and crimes are very important. The main tasks of traffic patrols, like other emergency-security facilities, are the monitoring and prevention of crime as well as handling and fining in the case of committing crimes. Traffic patrols should be present in the scene and also in high traffic congestion, to reduce accidents and crimes. This paper presents a bi-objective and stochastic optimization model to design an emergency-security system. This network includes traffic patrol vehicles and manpower in patrol vehicles. The objective of the proposed model is to maximize the number of vehicles passing through patrols and minimize the costs according to different scenarios. To solve the model, the epsilon-constraint method is used which simultaneously determines the location of the patrols, allocation of demand points to patrols, and determining the number of existing manpower in patrols. To evaluate and analyze the proposed model, a numerical example is used. |
