18 Improving Empty Container Logistics – Can it Avoid a Collapse in Container Transportation?
Since the introduction of the maritime container in the mid 1950's, liner shipping groups have migrated from inefficient traditional cargo handling techniques to large cellular vessels which can be seen at any of the world's major ports today. The use of the container improved intermodal productivity and allows for shorter point to point transit times. In addition, cargo damage is reduced. On o...
متن کاملOptimization of Inland Container Transportation with and without Container Sharing

In many cases, efficiency may overcome strategic positioning, i.e. a shipping line may prefer to call at a port which is able to handle efficiently a large mother vessel, and take advantage of economies of scale, even if it is not situated near to the main international shipping routes. ...
متن کاملBerth Allocation Planning for Improving Container Terminal Performances
This paper proposed an integrated model of combining Berth Allocation Problems (BAP) and Quay Cranes Assignments (QCA). It aims to improve terminal performances by minimizing the total service time and vessel transfer rate, especially for those important customers (vessels). A Two-Level Genetic Algorithm (TLGA) approach was proposed for solving the problems. A number of experiments were conduct...
متن کاملThe optimal number of yard cranes in container terminal
The aim of this study is to propose a new mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model to find the minimum required number of yard cranes, Rubber tyred gantry cranes (RTGCs), for completion the total amount of works at the end of planning horizon. In other word, we find the optimal number of yard cranes in a container terminal which completes the total amount of works. The paper supports the p...
