The international ocean transport industry in crisis : assessing the reasons and outlook [PDF]
Until 1980, the world merchant fleet expanded rapidly in response to thriving seatrade markets. Since then, it has not grown much. The industry did not adjust effectively to periodic global recession, and the fleet's earnings deteriorated as the gap ...

On Probability Distributions of the Operational Law of Container Liner Ships
Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series A: Statistics in Society, 2019 SummaryThe probability distribution of the operational law of container liner ships in port is the significant theoretical basis for the study of container liners and ports, but there has been a lack of corresponding statistical analysis and theoretical research on that distribution since maritime container transportation came into being.
