Systematic Network Design for Liner Shipping Services
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2013 A systematic design for a liner shipping network was addressed. Many practical features in real-world operations, including multiple types of containers, container transshipment operations, empty container repositioning, origin-to-destination transit time constraints, consistent services with the current network, and joint services with other liner ...

A new formulation for the liner shipping network design problem [PDF]
International Transactions in Operational Research, 2019 AbstractThe liner shipping network design problem (LSNDP) is an important problem within liner shipping because a good network can reduce costs and increase profits. Given sets of ports, vessel classes, and demands between the ports, the problem is to design a network of cyclic routes and assign a vessel class to each route so that all demands can flow

Liner Shipping Network Design with Reinforcement Learning
CoRRThis paper proposes a novel reinforcement learning framework to address the Liner Shipping Network Design Problem (LSNDP), a challenging combinatorial optimization problem focused on designing cost-efficient maritime shipping routes. Traditional methods for solving the LSNDP typically involve decomposing the problem into sub-problems, such as network ...

Container Liner Shipping System Design Considering Methanol-Powered Vessels
Journal of Marine Science and EngineeringThe transition from the use of heavy fuel oil (HFO) to the use of green fuels (e.g., methanol) for container liner shipping presents a significant challenge for liner shipping system design (LSSD) in terms of achieving emission reductions. While methanol,

A Matheuristic for the Liner Shipping Network Design Problem with Transit Time Restrictions [PDF]
, 2015 We present a mathematical model for the liner shipping network design problem with transit time restrictions on the cargo flow. We extend an existing matheuristic for the liner shipping network design problem to consider transit time restrictions. The matheuristic is an improvement heuristic, where an integer program is solved iteratively as a move ...

A matheuristic for the liner shipping network design problem [PDF]
, 2012 We present a matheuristic, an integer programming based heuristic, for the Liner Shipping Network Design Problem. The heuristic applies a greedy construction heuristic based on an interpretation of the liner shipping network design problem as a multiple quadratic knapsack problem.

Insights on the introduction of autonomous vessels to liner shipping networks
Journal of Shipping and Trade, 2022 This article investigates economic and operational effects of introducing autonomous vessels to liner shipping networks. By the formulation of optimization models, we analyze how fleet configurations with vessels of different capacity affect the cost and

Simultaneous Fleet Deployment and Network Design of Liner Shipping [PDF]
, 2010 A mixed integer linear programming formulation is proposed for the simultaneous design of network and fleet deployment of a liner service providers for deep-sea shipping. The underlying network design problem is based on a 4-index (5-index by considering capacity type) formulation of the hub location problem which are known for their tightness.

A Branch-and-Price Algorithm for the Liner Shipping Network Design Problem [PDF]
SN Operations Research Forum, 2020 AbstractMaritime transportation is the backbone of the global economy and one of its most important segments is liner shipping. To design a liner shipping network is notoriously difficult but also very important since an efficient network can be the difference between prosperity and bankruptcy. In this paper, we propose a branch-and-price algorithm for
