Quantity discount pricing for container transportation services by shipping lines
Because transportation services provided by container lines to forwarders cannot be stored, they can be considered to be newsvendor-type products. This paper discusses a method used to optimize container lines’ freight tariffs in order to maximize their expected profit by considering changes in order quantities made by forwarders responding to the price schemes suggested by the container lines....
متن کاملAutomated Planning for Liner Shipping Fleet Repositioning
The Liner Shipping Fleet Repositioning Problem (LSFRP) poses a large financial burden on liner shipping firms. During repositioning, vessels are moved between services in a liner shipping network. The LSFRP is characterized by chains of interacting activities, many of which have costs that are a function of their duration; for example, sailing slowly between two ports is cheaper than sailing qu...
متن کاملOptimal shipping routes and vessel size for intermodal barge transport with empty container repositioning
Despite the growing role of barge transportation in the hinterland access of major seaports in Northwestern Europe, service network design for intermodal barge transportation has received little research attention. In this paper, a decision support model for service network design in intermodal barge transportation is presented. The model determines optimal shipping routes for roundtrip service...
متن کاملImproving Packing Efficiency for Shipping Container
This present paper focused on the efficiency improvement on the container packing. The modified genetic algorithm (MGA) was developed to find the solution of arranging heterogeneous boxes into containers with a standardised dimension. The proposed MGA included an elitist strategy and flexible arranging sequence (FAS). Five instant datasets were used in the computational experiments aiming to be...
متن کاملOptimization in container liner shipping
We will gives an overview of several decision problem encountered in liner shipping. We will cover problems on the strategic, tactical and operational planning levels as well as problems that can be considered at two planning levels simultaneously. Furthermore, we will shortly discuss some related problems in terminals, geographical bottlenecks for container ships and provide an overview of ope...
