Liner shipping network design with sensitive demand [PDF]
Maritime Business Review, 2021 Purpose This paper aims to examine containership routing and speed optimization for maritime liner services. It focuses on a realistic case in which the transport demand, and consequently the collected revenue from the visited ports depend on the sailing speed.

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

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

Cooperative liner shipping network design by means of a combinatorial auction [PDF]
Flexible Services and Manufacturing Journal, 2017 Cooperation in the ocean liner shipping industry has always been important to improve liner shipping networks (LSN’s). As tight cooperations like alliances are challenged by antitrust laws, looser forms of cooperation among liner carriers might become a reasonable way to increase efficiency of LSN’s.

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,

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 CP Approach for the Liner Shipping Network Design Problem. [PDF]
, 2023 The liner shipping network design problem consists, for a shipowner, in determining, on the one hand, which maritime lines (in the form of rotations serving a set of ports) to open, and, on the other hand, the assignment of ships (container ships) with the adapted sizes for the different lines to carry all the container flows. In this paper, we propose

A flow‐first route‐next heuristic for liner shipping network design [PDF]
Networks, 2018 Having a well‐designed liner shipping network is paramount to ensure competitive freight rates, adequate capacity on trade‐lanes, and reasonable transportation times. The most successful algorithms for liner shipping network design make use of a two‐phase approach, where they first design the routes of the vessels, and then flow the containers through ...

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 ...
