Akyüz, M. Hakan (author), Dekker, Rommert (author), Sharif Azadeh, S. (author)The exclusive and excessive use of long-distance road transportation is not suitable way to reduce the negative environmental impacts of logistics systems. Intermodal transport, combining road with other transport modes, has the potential to reduce both operating costs and carbon footprints. One of the reasons for the low share of intermodal...journal article 2023

Zhang, Y. (author), Heinold, Arne (author), Meisel, Frank (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Atasoy, B. (author)Sustainability is a common concern in intermodal transport. Collaboration among carriers may help in reducing emissions. In this context, this work establishes a collaborative planning model for intermodal transport and uses eco-labels (a series of different levels of emission ranges) to reflect shippers’ sustainability preferences. A...journal article 2022

Houtsma, Y. (author)Road freight transport has a major impact on society with external effects such as congestion, air pollution and carbon emissions. Therefore, the European Commission stimulates the more sustainable alternative Intermodal Freight Transportation (IFT). To increase the share of IFT, it is needed to know the performance of the current IFT-network....master thesis 2020

Castelein, R.B. (author), Geerlings, Harry (author), van Duin, Ron (author)The global market for conditioned transport – predominantly conducted in refrigerated containers (‘reefers’) – grows rapidly. Due to the energy usage for continuous cargo cooling, the climate impact of cold logistics chains is substantial and still increasing.<br/>In addressing climate concerns, governments have committed themselves to a ‘modal...conference paper 2020

Guo, W. (author), Atasoy, B. (author), Beelaerts van Blokland, W.W.A. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author)Global intermodal transportation involves the movement of shipments between inland terminals located in different continents by using ships, barges, trains, trucks, or any combination among them through integrated planning at a network level. One of the challenges faced by global operators is the matching of shipment requests with transport...conference paper 2020

de Koning, Wouter (author)Logistics service providers (LSPs) offering container transport to the hinterland of the Netherlands face the challenge of efficiently using the capacity of the barge in order to minimize cost, while part of the relevant information is still lacking at the moment decisions have to be made. The existing infrastructure and the transportation...master thesis 2019

Hu, Q. (author), Wiegmans, B. (author), Corman, Francesco (author), Lodewijks, Gabriel (author)This paper investigates the problem of inter-terminal movements of containers and vehicles within a port area in order to achieve an integrated and effective transport within the port and towards the hinterland. Containers from different port terminals are first moved to a rail yard and then delivered to the hinterland by rail. To provide...journal article 2019

Dekker, Gerben (author)Small scale inland shipping, especially in the case of transported containers, is used only marginally compared to its capacity. The small inland waterways have abundant capacity to accommodate up to 700 percent more transport. On the other hand, road based container transport is cause for external damages in the form of congestion, emissions...master thesis 2018

Kalicharan, Kishan (author)In intermodal transport multiple types of vehicles are used to transport containers. If the routes of the vehicles are known, then the container allocation can be optimized. This problem can be modelled as an integral multi-commodity min cost flow problem on a time-space graph. This model has an arc-based and path-based form. In this thesis, the...master thesis 2018

Liu, W. (author)The road transportation has been overly used in freight transportation for decades, and it has undesirable effects on the environment. Nowadays, with the ever-increasing awareness of environmental issues which is mainly caused by road freight transportation, intermodal transport is thus promoted in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. But,...master thesis 2016

Kurapati, S. (author), Lukosch, H.K. (author), Verbraeck, A. (author), Brazier, F.M. (author)Seaports are crucial interfaces in global intermodal freight transportation networks. Their complex operations, connectedness to external stakeholders, and increasing volumes of goods to be handled make them vulnerable to internal and external disruptions. Research has shown that disruptions in seaports can cause undesirable ripple effects,...journal article 2015

Terlouw, K.J. (author)The Netherlands as the ‘Gateway to Europe’ is highly profitable for the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment (Ministry of I&E). To maintain this position, infrastructure investments are required to remove (potential) bottlenecks and to stimulate intermodal transport. This thesis focuses on two (potential) bottlenecks in the...master thesis 2015

Van Dorsser, J.C.M. (author)This thesis addresses how a new method for the evaluation of policies with a very long term impact on the Dutch Inland Waterway Transport (IWT) system can be developed. It proposes an outline for a very long term transport model, prepares a number of very long term scenarios, and indicates that a different perspective on economic growth and...doctoral thesis 2015

Jourquin, B. (author), Tavasszy, L.A. (author), Duan, L. (author)Elasticities for freight transport in the context of mode choice are hardly available for markets in which intermodal container transport competes with truck only transport. These elasticities are expected to be different, however, from values found in the literature for traditional freight transport, as trucking is a complement to rail or...journal article 2014

Behdani, B. (author), Zuidwijk, R.A. (author)Accessibility of main sea ports by road has become increasingly difficult due to rapid growth in container throughput. To deal with this challenge, new ways for handling containers and distribution of cargo flows are needed to define and implement. One possibility is going beyond container transportation and considering cargos inside the...conference paper 2014

Joys, J. (author)Intermodal transportation networks are faced with several risks due to their daily operational businesses and environmental conditions. The efficient operation of the network is dependent on the coordination of operations among the different actors in the network: terminal operator, freight forwarder and the inland transport operators (Douma,...master thesis 2014

Van Binsbergen, A.J. (author), Konings, R. (author), Tavasszy, L.A. (author), Van Duin, J.H.R. (author)Over the last two decades many innovations in intermodal freight transport have been proposed to boost the market share of intermodal transport. However, only few of them have materialized. In this paper we explore why innovations in intermodal transport are difficult to realize and how barriers for their successful implementation could be...conference paper 2014
