18 Improving Empty Container Logistics – Can it Avoid a Collapse in Container Transportation?
Since the introduction of the maritime container in the mid 1950's, liner shipping groups have migrated from inefficient traditional cargo handling techniques to large cellular vessels which can be seen at any of the world's major ports today. The use of the container improved intermodal productivity and allows for shorter point to point transit times. In addition, cargo damage is reduced. On o...
متن کاملColumn Generation for the Container Relocation Problem
Container terminals offer transfer facilities to move containers from vessels to trucks, trains and barges and vice versa. Within the terminal the container yard serves as a temporary buffer where incoming containers are piled up in stacks. Only the topmost container of each stack can be accessed. If another container has to be retrieved, containers stored above it must be relocated first. Cont...
متن کاملThe Stochastic Container Relocation Problem
The Container Relocation Problem (CRP) is concerned with finding a sequence of moves of containers that minimizes the number of relocations needed to retrieve all containers, while respecting a given order of retrieval. However, the assumption of knowing the full retrieval order of containers is particularly unrealistic in real operations. This paper studies the stochastic CRP (SCRP), which rel...
متن کاملAn uncertain programming for empty container allocation
Because of most liner trade is imbalanced, liner operators often need to reposition their empty containers or to lease containers to meet customer’s demand. It is important for liner operators to allocate their empty containers effectively, which implying reducing their leasing cost and the inventory level at ports. In this paper, we consider the ocean transportation problem for empty container...
متن کاملPort dynamic empty container reuse
In this paper, empty container movements in the Los Angeles and Long Beach (LA/LB) port area are studied in an effort to reduce congestion by optimizing the empty container reuse. The dynamic empty container reuse is modeled analytically, and techniques are developed to optimize empty container operations. Several case studies based on current and projected demand in the LA/LB port area are use...
