摘要: 末端物流无人化作为一种新兴技术手段,虽然已初步应用于实践中,但其在实施效果和优化策略方面尚缺乏系统性和 定量化的研究。通过量化校园末端物流无人化的实际需求,评估不同自动化水平和情景下的社会效益、经济效益、生态 效益,为校园无人化物流规划提供科学依据。以清华大学校园为典型应用场景,结合YOLOv8和ByteTrack算法开发物流 需求测度模型,实现对监控数据中骑手的自动识别与计数。在此基础上,结合问卷数据,利用Anylogic平台进行仿真模拟, 分析末端物流无人化在多种情景下的影响。结果表明,末端物流无人化在提高配送效率和降低能耗方面具有明显优势, 但存在导致顾客等待时间增加的问题,服务水平仍需提升。通过提高机器人或骑手速度、增加机器人数量和增加配送枢 纽数量等策略,可以提高配送效率,减少顾客等待时间,并减少能源消耗。基于模拟结果,发现校园内需要部署至少40台 机器人以完成配送任务。此外,布局4—5个配送枢纽、每个枢纽15—20个机器人,具有较高的经济性。同时,建议将机器人 及骑手速度控制在13—15 km/h以实现安全与效率的平衡。
Abstract: Unmanned last-mile logistics, as an emerging technological approach, has seen preliminary applications in practice. However, systematic and quantitative research on its implementation effectiveness and optimization strategies remains insufficient. This study aims to quantify the actual demand for unmanned last-mile logistics on campus and evaluate the social, economic, and ecological benefits across different automation levels and scenarios, providing scientific guidance for campus logistics planning. Taking the Tsinghua University campus as a typical application scenario, a logistics demand measurement model is developed by integrating the YOLOv8 and ByteTrack algorithms to automatically identify and count delivery riders from surveillance data. On this basis, combined with questionnaire data, a simulation is conducted using the AnyLogic platform to analyze the impact of unmanned last-mile logistics under various scenarios. The results indicate that unmanned last-mile logistics offers significant advantages in improving delivery efficiency and reducing energy consumption. However, it also leads to increased customer waiting times, and the service level still needs to be improved. Strategies such as increasing robot or rider speed, adding more robots, and expanding delivery hubs can enhance delivery efficiency, reduce customer waiting times, and lower energy consumption. Based on the simulation results, it is found that at least 40 robots are required on campus to complete delivery tasks. Furthermore, the layout of 4-5 delivery hubs, each equipped with 15-20 robots, is found to be highly cost-effective. It is also recommended that robot and rider speeds be controlled between 13-15 km/h to balance safety and efficiency.
