Intermodal Transport of Windmills

open access: yesTransportation Research Procedia, 2014
AbstractSpecial goods can be difficult to handle due to fragility, weight or size and therefore require special treatment when transported. Windmills are examples of special goods with challenges both with respect to high weight and large size. At least in Europe, the focus on green energy entails rapid development of windmill projects where components

Intermodal Inland Waterway Transport: Modelling Conditions Influencing Its Cost Competitiveness

open access: yesAsian Journal of Shipping and Logistics, 2015
In this paper a model is developed to analyse and compare the transport costs of intermodal inland waterway transport and road-only-transport. The influence of the economies of scale in inland waterway transport and terminal operations are taken into ...

Information Requirements and Legal Framework for Multimodal Transport System Coordination

open access: yesLogistics
Background: In multimodal transport the interplay of coordination methods and legal requirements is a challenging task. To address the latter, a combined approach for the coordination of a multimodal passenger transport system in accordance with European

Systematic Time Tables - Modelling of Trains' Paths by Using Genetic Algorithms

open access: yesCommunications, 2008
One of construction possibilities of a time table is the implementation of systematic timetabling. In systematic timetabling, the trains' paths are ordered regularly (thus systematically).

Encoding Cumulation to Learn Perturbative Nonlinear Oscillatory Dynamics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Weak nonlinearities critically shape the long term behavior of oscillatory systems but are difficult to identify from data. A data‐driven framework is introduced to infer governing equations of weakly nonlinear oscillators from sparse and noisy observations.
