Primal-Dual Value Function Approximation for Stochastic Dynamic Intermodal Transportation with Eco-Labels

Transportation Science, 2022
Eco-labels are a way to benchmark transportation shipments with respect to their environmental impact. In contrast to an eco-labeling of consumer products, emissions in transportation depend on several operational factors like the mode of transportation (

Multimodal Urban Transportation Network Capacity Model Considering Intermodal Transportation

Transportation Research Record, 2022
Transportation network capacity is an important indicator from measuring the performance of a transportation system. Previous studies on the capacity of multimodal networks have not considered transfers between different transportation modes.

Sustainable Intermodal Train Transport

2018
Increasing the share of intermodal transport is a promising way to reduce CO2 emissions. This chapter examines the key drivers increasing the share of rail-based intermodal freight transport in Europe. The institutional theory is used to identify the drivers, and the literature is reviewed to categorize the main external and internal drivers that could

Intermodal Transportation Systems

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1972
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Economic forces and technological developments have been combining in recent years to create a revolution in cargo transportation known as containerization. However, this is only one manifestation of the dramatic growth in Intermodal Transportation as a whole.

A new logistics model for increasing economic sustainability of perishable food supply chains through intermodal transportation

, 2020
As urgency in limiting greenhouse gas and carbon dioxide emissions has increased, greening freight and perishable food logistics activities has become an issue of interest. Intermodal rail-road transportation allows for reducing carbon dioxide emissions.
