Simulation Modeling and Analysis of Complex Port Operations with Multimodal Transportation
World trade has been increasing dramatically in the past two decades, and as a result containers exchange has grown significantly. Accordingly, container terminals are expanding to meet this increase and new container ports have opened. Ports with one or more container terminals are considered complex systems in which many resources, entities and transporters interact to achieve the objective o...

متن کاملDiscrete-Event Dynamic Systems Modelling Distributed Multi-Agent Control of Intermodal Container Terminals
Maritime intermodal container terminals (CTs) are complex hub systems in which multiple transport modes receive and distribute freight to various destinations. They can be considered as interchange places in a transport system network where seaways, railways, and motorways intersect. Freight is usually organized, transported, stacked, handled and delivered in standard units of a typical contain...
متن کاملTransit factors affecting shrink, shipping fever and subsequent performance of feeder calves.
Five shipments of feeder calves (965 head hauled in 11 drop-center trailers) were shipped 1,600 km by tractor trailer from Algood, Tennessee, to Bushland, Texas, during the fall seasons of 1976, 1977 and 1978. Shrink, incidence of shipping fever and subsequent feedlot performance of these feeder calves were analyzed. There were significant differences in shrink and subsequent feedlot performanc...

Recent changes in the US liability regime for oil pollution damage have intensi®ed a policy debate about environmental liability limits. Economic theory suggests that some type of limit may be needed under certain conditions, and that such a limit should be set so that the marginal social bene®t and cost are equal. However, it is unclear how a liability limit may be determined speci®cally for t...
