1. 16. Development of Small-Scale Intermodal Freight Transportation in a Systems Context

   Författare :Johan Woxenius; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; transport chain; conceptual modelling; barrier; transshipment technology; transportation system; intermodal freight transportation; gateway terminal; combined transport; yransport network; technology implementation;

   Sammanfattning : An intermodal freight transportation system is characterised by the subsequent use of different transportation modes for moving goods stowed into unit loads from the consignor to the consignee. Typically, it involves a wide variety of activities, actors and resources, which implies a certain degree of technological as well as organisational complexity. LÄS MER

3. 17. Real-time information for disruption management in intermodal freight transport

   Författare :Per Wide; Sweden Chalmers University of Technology; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the recovery phase after operational disruptions in intermodal freight transport, which is a vital aspect of mitigating impacts such as late deliveries and thus achieving high operational efficiency. Intermodal freight transport is influenced by the ongoing development of information and communication technologies. LÄS MER

4. 18. Emergence and significance of dry ports

   Författare :Violeta Roso; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; intermodal transport; dry port; seaport inland access; intermodal terminal; environment.;

   Sammanfattning : With increasing maritime containerized transport, efficient seaport terminals and inland access are essential for the entire intermodal transportation chain to function. Improvement only in maritime transport and in seaport terminals without improvements in seaport inland access is not sufficient since a growth in the sea flow implies an almost proportional increase in the inland flow.

5. 19. Access management in intermodal freight terminals: The perspective of road haulier operations

   Författare :Stefan Jacobsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; road haulier operations; information exchange; differentiation and segmentation strategies; resource efficiency; intermodal freight terminals; access management;

   Sammanfattning : Given its possibilities of switching freight from road to more sustainable modes such as rail, inland water ways and seaways, intermodal freight transportation depends on environmental and economic variables. At the same time, intermodal freight transportation is essentially complex due to the variety of modes of transport and their corresponding actors. LÄS MER

7. 20. The Dry Port Concept

   Författare :Violeta Roso; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; environment; dry port; intermodal transport; seaport inland access; intermodal terminal;

   Sammanfattning : Environmental problems have received increasing attention during the last decade and with them also the role that logistics systems can play in reducing the environmental impact; however, logistics concepts in the role of decreasing environmental impacts have not been extensively researched until recently. One of these concepts is a concept of dry port, which is the focus of this thesis. LÄS MER
