Accessibility of main sea ports by road has become increasingly difficult due to rapid growth in container throughput. To deal with this challenge, new ways for handling containers and distribution of cargo flows are needed to define and implement. One possibility is going beyond container transportation and considering cargos inside the containers in the design and operation of transportation ...

Container transportation plays a key role in the process largely because of the numerous technical and economic advantages it provides over traditional methods of water transportation. Compared with traditional port operations, containerization has greatly improved performance of port production. Many container ports no longer enjoy the freedom yielded by a monopoly over the handling of cargo f...

This paper assesses the vehicle dynamics of a new cargo bike concept developed for euro pallet sized cargo. The is last-mile delivery. Different aspects manoeuvrability and stability are examined using series manoeuvres based on tests from automotive industry combined with bicycle regulations. These objectively evaluate determine handling capabilities concept. Those can be compared results benc...

The purpose of this paper is to show the efficiency of application of system dynamic simulation modelling when researching the behaviour dynamics of the port transhipment process, and finding the optimal solution for cargo handling with regard to the type and scope of cargo traffic, directions of movement, and pace of receiving and shipping of cargo. In view of the potential scientific implemen...
