This paper analyses cost aggregation in a supply chain. It provides a literature overview on the key concepts of cost aggregation, multimodal transport, logistic chain and maritime transport. The focuses on the value adding process with logistics data and assesses the costs accumulation during the transport process. The paper also reveals multimodal impacts on the logistics costs. The research ...

Multimodal supply chains are characterized by multiple changes of transport modes and vehicles. Hence the risks for theft, untimely delivery and freight quality deterioration increase. There is hence a growing need to manage the security and efficiency of consignments from door to door. This paper describes the results of the Finnish national SCIE (Supply Chain Security and Integrity) project, ...

The article deals with the problems of notions application by carriage goods different types transport. absence single approach both in theoretical part and legislation base creates Russia ambiguousness definition such as “multimodal transportation”, “intermodal “direct mixed transport”, “mixed “combined transport”. Authors view existing approaches abroad make correspondent conclusions.

This paper discusses an ongoing study of a multimodal installation on the subject matter of steam power locomotives at a transport museum in Glasgow, Scotland. The key issue of the study is the role of multimodal interaction in museum visitors’ experience of exhibits, their engagement with the topic and the exhibit. The paper describes the approach taken to answer these questions which has so f...

The paper discusses requirements for freight modelling and presents specific approaches concerning freight surveys, demand and network modelling, rail freight optimisation and freight assignment including: • Surveying methods for collecting road based demand data. • WIVER/VISEVA: a demand modelling system for urban and regional commercial transport. • SPIN: a multimodal network model for interm...

We developed a passenger transport model for the North of France and used it to discuss impacts some policies focusing on limitations polluting gas emissions congestion. The is calibrated includes both urban intercity trips. Four modes are considered: walking, biking, public private cars. To extent, combination these possible. match mode shares dynamic congestion along full day. simulations con...
