Bottleneck-Analysis on Intermodal Maritime Transportation Chains
نویسندگان
چکیده
Scenario analysis often is used to determine bottlenecks in multimodal transportation and logistics chains. Bottleneck-analysis itself is a process related approach to identify shortages in multimodal transportation and logistics supply chains, and concerned with analysis of resource planes, optimization of multimodal transportation chains, consideration of timeliness and concurrency using resources, transaction analysis, multi-criteria approach, etc. Henceforth, the scenario analysis has to include the evaluation of the impact on intermodal transportation chains, the results of which can be obtained from simulation.

An intermodal multicommodity routing problem with scheduled services
We study a multicommodity routing problem faced by an intermodal service operator that uses ground and maritime transportation. Given a planning horizon, a set of commodities to be picked up at their release times and to be delivered not later than their duedates, the problem is to decide on routes for these commodities using trucks and scheduled and capacitated maritime services at minimum cos...
متن کاملThe Cargo Fare Class Mix problem for an intermodal corridor: revenue management in synchromodal container transportation
The intermodal hinterland transportation of maritime containers is under pressure from port authorities and shippers to achieve a more integrated, efficient network operation. Current optimisation methods in literature yield limited results in practice, though, as the transportation product structure limits the flexibility to optimise network logistics. Synchromodality aims to overcome this by ...
متن کاملGlobal intermodal liner shipping network design
This paper presents a holistic analysis for the network design problem of the intermodal liner shipping system. Existing methods for liner shipping network design mainly deal with port-to-port demand. However, most of the demand has inland origins and/or destinations. Thus, it is necessary to cope with inland origin-destination (OD) pairs involving a change in transport mode from inland transpo...
متن کاملIntermodal Freight Transportation
The 21st century will see a renewed focus on intermodal freight transportation driven by the changing requirements of global supply chains. Each of the transportation modes (air, inland water, ocean, pipeline, rail, and road) has gone through technological evolution and has functioned separately under a modally based regulatory structure for most of the 20th century. With the development of con...

Intermodal transportation has experienced a phenomenal growth over the past two decades, and continues to be one of the rapidly growing segments of the transportation industry. This has been attributed to the competitive pressures on global supply chains, the increasing demand for new service patterns driven by ocean carriers as well as the globalization of industry (Szyliowicz, 2003; Stone, 19...
