Intermodal Inland Waterway Transport: Modelling Conditions Influencing Its Cost Competitiveness
Asian 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 ...
