Jean-Christophe Deschamps

Jean-Christophe Deschamps is an Associate Professor in the Production Engineering department at Université de Bordeaux, specifically affiliated with the Laboratoire de l'intégration, du matériau au système (IMS). He is part of the LOCO2 research team within the Production Engineering research group at the College of Engineering.

His research focuses on supply chain management, city logistics, transportation optimization, and vehicle routing problems, with particular emphasis on sustainable urban logistics solutions. His work often addresses the challenges of urban freight transportation, including the optimization of urban consolidation centers, multi-modal delivery systems, and the integration of freight logistics with people mobility.

Recent publications demonstrate his expertise in applying operations research techniques to solve complex logistics problems, particularly in urban environments. His research shows a consistent trend toward developing sustainable solutions for city logistics, with several studies focusing on Bordeaux as a case study. His work increasingly incorporates concepts like the Physical Internet and hyperconnected urban synchromodality to address modern urban transportation challenges.

• 2024-2025 publications focus on urban consolidation centers, freight-people mobility synergies, and sustainable performance evaluation
• 2022 work demonstrates expertise in advanced vehicle routing algorithms
