Fuzzy empty containers excess estimation as an economic indicator—the case …

Today, approximately 90% of the world’s cargo is moved by ships and almost all general cargoes are transported in containers. Worldwide container traffic has increased over the last 20 years by 7% annually, and containerization has begun to seriously impact global trade patterns. As a result, container terminals have become very important nodes in the world’s supply chain. In this article, …

Counterbalancing peripherality and concentration: an analysis of the UK conta…

Over the last four decades, the UK container port system experienced a shift to and concentration in the southeast of the country, close to the English Channel. At the same time, traditional ports in the north and centre of the country have lost importance, despite overall container traffic growth. This paper analyses the evolution of container traffic at UK ports, mapping the patterns of conta…

Seaport Terminal Management

Specialization in shipping has been the most significant development in sea transport in recent times, driven by spectacular growth in international trade. Very large dry and liquid bulk carriers have appeared, and there has been a remarkable transition from conventional to what are termed unitized means of carriage in the general cargo trades. This has involved palletization, packaged timber…

The adaptive capacity of container ports in an era of mega vessels: The case …

Port systemdevelopment is a key theme in port geography literature. Recent decades have brought a rise in container terminal development at estuarine, coastal and offshore port locations, in part driven by scale increases in vessel size. This paper examines howcontainer ports located upstreamon rivers use processes of adaptive capacity building in an attempt to remain competitive in port system…

Regional integration and maritime connectivity across the Maghreb seaport system

Models and empirical studies of port system evolution dominantly focus on land-based dynamics. Hence, it is traditionally recognized that such dynamics condition the evolution of ports and their relations as well as wider regional integration processes. The Maghreb region (Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia), which is currently responsible for no less than one-third of all African port throughputs, …

Defining a convergence network platform framework for smart grid and intellig…

The challenges faced by electricity grids suggest smart grids will have to coordinate its operation with other important initiatives in areas such as transportation. The smart grid relies on the use of network platforms where meter readings and data can be transmitted. On the other hand, concerning transportation systems the need to achieve a reduction of road congestion and traffic accidents …

Concentration and load centre development in the European container port system

Only a few theories exist on the development of a container port system in relation to forelands, hinterlands and the technological environment. Moreover, very few were ever applied to the European container port system. This study examines recent dynamics - in particular, concentration and deconcentration tendencies and load centre development - in the European continental container port syste…

A strategic appraisal of the attractiveness of seaport-based transport corrid…

The past decade has brought significant growth at, and competition between regional gateway ports and intermediate hub container ports in Southern Africa. Corridors are the essential link between these ports and continental hinterlands. Capacity expansions of seaport and corridor networks (resources), in conjunction with efficient transport services/operations (capabilities) are important to gu…

Extending landed cost models to improve offshore sourcing decisions

The purpose of this paper is to identify the components required for more robust landed cost models given the now widespread interest in sourcing finished goods, components for assembly, and basic raw materials from global sources. This study also seeks to establish the need for broad-based participation in operationalizing such models.

Water distribution in disaster relief

The purpose of this paper is to present an operations research (OR) model for planning water distribution tours in disaster relief. Especially in situations after a disaster occurrence, characterized by instability and the immediate need of help, high-quality decisions have to be made fast. For this reason, it is very useful if planning decisions can be alleviated by a decision support system (…

A simulation based decision support system for logistics management

tThis paper deals with designing and developing a Decision Support System (DSS) that will be able tomanage the flow of goods and the business transactions between a port and a dry port. An integrated DSSarchitecture is proposed and specified and the main components are designed on the basis of simulationand optimization modules. In order to show the use and implementation of the DSS, this work …

TOPS : advanced decision support system for port and maritime chemical logistics

This paper presents a decision support system named the Tanker Operations Planning System (TOPS). It is a user-friendly software with an advanced routing and scheduling algorithm to automate and aid the operational decision making process. It considers the key operations constraints faced by the tanker owners. The advanced routing and scheduling algorithm embedded in the decision engine uses he…

The emergence of advanced information technologies strengthens the capability to the entrepreneur to manage and manipulate data. However, the quality of information, the capability of providing the right information to the right person, and the utilization of information are still in doubt. Therefore, increasing numbers of firms have realized and started to develop as well as improve their exis…

AIS data visualization for maritime spatial planning (MSP)

The constant increase in marine traffic and the simultaneous growth of the demand for exploiting marine areas (e.g., installing offshore wind power plants) require an adequate planning strategy for managing high traffic volumes. Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) is the process of public development of an allocation plan for distributing, both spatially and temporally, human activities in marine a…

A bilevel storage pricing model for outbound containers in a dry port system

Serving as a potential solution for seaport congestion and capacity limitation, dry port development is increasingly popular in the freight transport industry. This paper pioneers the research on dry port operations by modelling the storage pricing problem for outbound containers. The interaction between a dry port and multiple shippers is modelled as a bilevel program. The optimal properties o…

National port competitiveness-implications for India

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to perform an international comparison of logistics/port operations with a main focus on India. Design/methodology/approach – Using data from the transportation and freight service industry during 2000-2005, this study first conducts revealed comparative advantage (RCA) analysis to investigate India’s logistics competitiveness and then uses data env…

Our total cycle time (TCT) compression strategy encompasses the whole system in the supply chain from consumer demand to customer satisfaction. TCT has two major components that are essential to meeting customer demand: information flow and material flow. Both are necessities and together make up the total supply chain lead‐time; the information activates the material pipeline. Therefore to o…
