Robust empty container repositioning considering foldable containers

European Journal of Operational Research, 2020
Abstract Because of the extreme imbalance in intercontinental trade, the repositioning of empty containers creates a significant problem for shipping companies. There are many efforts to reduce the cost of repositioning empty containers, one of which is a foldable container.

Foldable and standard containers in empty container repositioning

Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review, 2013
Strategies to reposition empty containers are an unabated issue for shipping companies. This study compares the repositioning costs of foldable containers to those of standard containers. Mathematical models are used to minimize the total relevant cost, which includes the folding/unfolding cost, the inventory storage cost, the container purchasing cost,

The effect of multi-scenario policies on empty container repositioning

Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review, 2009
Abstract This paper addresses a container maritime-repositioning problem where several parameters are uncertain and historical data are useless for decision-making processes. To address this problem, we propose a time-extended multi-scenario optimization model in which scenarios can be generated taking into account shipping company opinions.

Maritime Empty Container Repositioning

International Journal of Strategic Decision Sciences, 2014
Maritime shipping containers are important to a number of different industries as they facilitate the reduction of transportation costs. To address the needs of shippers, empty containers need to be repositioned globally between seaports. Since the cost of empty container repositioning (ECR) constitutes a significant element of the total cost of ...

Empty containers repositioning

Proceedings of the 2010 Spring Simulation Multiconference, 2010
Since the beginning of containerization, empty containers repositioning has been an on-going issue in the maritime transportation industry. Over the years several research works have been developed in order to face the reposition of empty containers. This paper provides the readers with an accurate overview on methodologies and scientific approaches ...
