Empty Container Repositioning

open access: yes, 2023
Although some movements of empty containers are needed due to imbalances between inbound and outbound goods flows in specific geographical areas, the transport of empty containers could be performed more efficiently. This report outlines results from the project “Increasing transport efficiency through reducing positioning of empty containers ...

PLANNING EMPTY CONTAINER RELOCATIONS UNDER UNCERTAINTY

open access: yesThe South African Journal of Industrial Engineering, 2011
<p>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Reusable packaging often accumulates downstream in supply chains, resulting in non-revenue-earning relocations. This paper presents a reliable optimisation model under supply and demand uncertainty. Instead of using deterministic forecasted values, we propose a fixed recourse stochastic program that embeds the approximated ...

Generating Permutations with Restricted Containers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We investigate a generalization of stacks that we call $\mathcal{C}$-machines. We show how this viewpoint rapidly leads to functional equations for the classes of permutations that $\mathcal{C}$-machines generate, and how these systems of functional ...
