摘      要：Determining the optimal vehicle routing of emergency material distribution(VREMD)is one of the core issues of emergency management,which is strategically important to improve the effectiveness of emergency response and thus reduce the negative impact of large-scale emergency *** summarize the latest research progress,we collected 511VREMD-related articles published from 2010 to the present from the Scopus database and conducted a bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer ***,we cautiously selected 49 articles from these publications for system review;sorted out the latest research progress in model construction and solution algorithms;and summarized the evolution trend of keywords,research gaps,and future *** results show that domestic scholars and research organizations held an unqualified advantage regarding the number of published ***,these organizations with the most publications performed poorly regarding the number of literature *** and the US have contributed the vast majority of the literature,and there are close collaborations between researchers from both *** optimization model of VREMD can be divided into single-,multi-,and joint-objective *** shortest travel time is the most common optimization objective in the single-objective optimization *** scholars focus on multiobjective optimization models to consider conflicting objectives *** recent literature,scholars have focused on the impact of uncertainty and special events(e.g.,COVID-19)on ***,some scholars focus on joint optimization models to optimize vehicle routes and central locations(or material allocation)*** algorithms can be divided into two primary categories,i.e.,mathematical planning methods and intelligent evolutionary *** branch and bound algorithm is the most dominant mathematical planning algorithm,while genetic algorithms and their enhancements are the most co
