Abstract:
The proposed paper discusses multimodal container transport due to savings in external costs. Relevant data have been analysed by reviewing previous research and published works for making a synthesis of one’s own conclusions. The research findings showed that there is no significant difference in the share of external costs of container transport and transport of other types of cargo in great European seaports as well as in energy consumption of multimodal rail-inland ship container transport and the same transport mode of bulk cargo. Intermodal terminals have also their own external costs. In spite of a double railway operational cost, it is important to include the railway in the intermodal terminal. The inland waterway transport has much higher external costs than sea transport. Multimodal container transport does not necessarily lower external costs. The savings are more common if the location and type of intermodal terminal are selected properly, and the sea transportation is involved in the multimodal transport chain.

Abstract:
This paper proposes a simulation model to analyze the handling and the transfer system of containers in Le Havre seaport. The decision variables of simulation are determined by using the CPLEX optimization software. The goal is to determine the least expensive strategy for the transfer of a set of containers between container terminals. The simulation model is developed using an object-oriented approach and Flexsim CT simulation software. The objective is to obtain an efficient operating process for the multimodal terminal of Le Havre which is an intermediate platform for transferring containers (collection and delivery) by rail and river (trains and barges). The goal is to evaluate the performance of the containers transfer by rail shuttles between the future multimodal terminal and the maritime terminals. The aim is to analyze and to evaluate performance indicators of port logistics chain (costs, resource occupancy rate, service rate), and to test several management strategies.

Abstract:
Multimodal transport is still growing sector of economic activity in Poland. In 2015, transported in this way, more than 10 million tons of goods, an increase compared to 2014 by 7.5%. According to the Railway Transport Office (RTO) Multimodal Transportation in Poland constitute only 2.37% of commodity mass transported by rail and 4.53% made by her carriage transport work, which in comparison with other countries puts Poland on one of the last places in Europe. According to the forecasts of the RTO share of intermodal transport in the Polish railway market in the years 2003-2020 will increase from 1% to almost 6%. The increase in the commodity mass passing through the container terminals carries an increased risk of major failure involving dangerous chemicals. The question then arises: how to take care of the appropriate level of security acceptable to the general public.

Abstract:
As the transhipment of goods is a major cost factor within multimodal transport there is high potential in optimizing transhipment processes at container terminals and thus to reduce transportation costs. One aspect thereby is to improve efficiency of ports ́ personnel, optionally by using port vehicle simulators for training. The paper ́s aim is to identify the demand for port-transcending vehicle simulator training at container terminals in the Danube Region and to examine the feasibility of its practical implementation. Results suggest high basic interest of container terminals in simulator training. Currently, simulators were mainly operated by crane and reach stacker (simulator) manufacturers. However, caused by the high technical and organizational expenses it is yet not possible or at least not profitable for container terminals itself to offer port-transcending simulator training.

Globalization is a significant factor for optimization of the existing transport chains. It is a major power for sustainable development of containerized transport, the relevant transport infrastructure and terminal equipment. The development of seaports and inland waterway connections became important part in global supply chain. The transportation models which are using multimodal transport service consist from maritime, port and hinterland parts. Choosing the appropriate strategy allows the shipping companies to reduce the transport cost and helps them to be more competitive on the cargo market. This article aims to identify the challenges and prospects for development of multimodal transport operations with containerized cargoes using of system approach to the each subsystems of the multimodal transport chain. To achieve the scope of the paper, research has been done on the global effects that big shipping companies contribute to the final transport cost; to the organization in container terminals and further influence on the local terminal operators; to the improvement of port infrastructure, including the number of offered services and implementation of innovations for increasing terminal efficiency. As a result, the main parameters for evaluation of the importance of one container terminal in the supply chain are defined.

Abstract:
This study introduces the concept of microgames to support situated learning in order to foster situational awareness (SA) of planners in seaport container terminals. In today's complex working environments, it is often difficult to develop the required level of understanding of a given situation, described as situational awareness. A container terminal represents an important, complex node in the multimodal transportation of goods. Many operations have to be planned in order to ensure a high performance of the whole system. To evaluate the relation between SA and planning task performance, the authors conducted tests with 142 participants. They evaluated the role of SA in integrated planning activities, and the playability and usefulness of the microgame. In conclusion, the authors can state that SA is very conducive to integrated planning tasks in container terminal operations. The microgame approach allows for an enjoyable game activity, while providing a meaningful situated learning experience towards SA.

Abstract:
Background: The efficiency and competitiveness of port supply chain entities are two critical concerns for maritime transport that must constantly be enhanced. This paper presents an approach called ECOGRAISIM for evaluating the performance of the seaport supply chain. The objective is to achieve an effective operational plan for multimodal terminals. Methods: The proposed approach incorporates the ECOGRAI (Graph with Interconnected Results and Activities) technique with ESSIMAS (Evaluation by Simulation of Innovative Solutions for the Development of Mass Transport on the Seine Axis by electric rail coupons). An additional stage was incorporated to accomplish the performance control. A particular focus was put on action variables and procedures for container and massified transfer management. The multimodal terminal at Le Havre seaport was adopted as the case study. Results: Several scenarios of container transfer were defined and investigated based upon specific features, including delays, minimizing expenses and CO2 emissions. The results show that the operational planning method results in a higher service rate and significantly reduces delay, cost and CO2 emissions. Conclusions: The proposed approach is bound to be beneficial for maritime transport planners and decision makers.

Abstract:
Currently, container transportation is one of the modern and convenient ways to deliver goods. This is the most progressive way to optimize transport processes. The use of containers in multimodal transportation of goods contributes to the inclusion of Russia in the transport network of the world, expands the possibilities of using the transit potential of our country, and increases the competitiveness of the domestic transport system. The main advantage of transportation of goods in containers is the possibility of their transfer to adjacent modes of transport without reloading the cargo. This is very important in the interaction of sea and rail transport, at the points of interaction between a port station and a seaport. The use of terminals when reloading containers from one mode of transport to another can also be more efficient compared to a number of other cargo flows. It would be relevant to study the change in the dynamics of container traffic transported by rail and sea in the Russian Federation, as the most promising in the context of the predicted growth of post-pandemic world trade. The result of the article was an analysis of the dynamics of container turnover over several years, and graphs were drawn up of changes in the volume of container transportation in TEU by rail and sea transport. Used public access materials and official sites, research by various scientists.

Abstract:
Inland terminals, or dry ports, have played an important role in multimodal transportation networks as transportation hubs that provide connections between seaports and hinterland economies. While important, evaluating the operational performance of a dry port is especially challenging since it depends not only on internal factors, such as the variety and number of container handling equipment (CHE) deployed, but also on other external factors, including changes in transportation policies and container demands experienced by a dry port. To properly evaluate the holistic performance of a dry port while considering all the aforementioned factors, a discrete event simulation (DES) framework is herein developed and applied to the Ladkrabang Inland Container Depot (LICD)—one of the largest dry ports in Southeast Asia—under various operational settings. Despite complicated internal operations, the devised DES framework has shown itself useful in the analyses of LICD, due largely to its flexibility that allows users to include sophisticated operational rules into models. According to our computational results, the current LICD operation is markedly ineffective as the usage rates of all CHE types are relatively low and varied across gate operators—especially the yard truck whose values range between 2.46% and 11.15% on yearly average. We also find that, by redesigning the LICD and its internal operations, the LICD’s performance could be substantially enhanced—even with fewer numbers of CHE. Regarding the four CHE types, the reach stacker seems to limit LICD’s capability, as its utilization tends to first reach the maximum allowable rate of 75%, while the rubber tyred gantry crane could help boost the usage rate of yard trucks, which, in turn, results in reduced container dwelling times. Nonetheless, the modified LICD could accommodate up to 140% of the current container demand before it experiences operational difficulties induced by the saturation of container flow from rail transportation.

Abstract:
It is now widely accepted that the locations of intermediate facilities, such as logistics platforms or inland ports, are key elements of multimodal freight distribution networks and heavily influence their effectiveness. This crucial role of localization decisions is even more significant if we consider their impact on the external costs of the entire logistic corridor, with reference to the cost components associated with environmental sustainability. This paper faces a facility location problem concerning a port system network serving inbound container flows arriving by sea and travelling via road and/or rail towards the hinterland. The aim is to evaluate the impact of externalities on the overall management of the distribution network, including location decisions, flow routing and transport mode choice. We present a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model having the goal of minimizing both the location and shipping costs, while accounting for external cost components. In particular, as a novel environmental issue, we propose three different objective functions including congestion, air pollution, and, incidentally, noise and infrastructure deterioration. We allow the containerized flows to be split among several capacitated facilities and road and rail transport modalities. The reported computational experimentation refers to different intermodal freight logistic networks through real data derived from the logistic network departing from the maritime terminals associated with the port of the Ligurian region towards their main destinations in the north-west side of Italy. Finally, we evaluate the impact on both flows and total costs due to a closure or a capacity reduction on some links of the network. The evidence of the impact of sustainability external costs on the design and management of the multimodal logistic network under analysis is emphasized.

Abstract:
US ports and container/intermodal terminals are critical links in the marine transportation system. Disruption at a port can have a crippling economic effect in the coastal zone as well as the rest of the nation. Port stakeholders have a vested interest in the long-term function and viability of ports, but no standardized measures for performance or resilience exist for ports. The goal of this research is to demonstrate the utility of a predictive port resilience assessment tool. The developed tool encompasses a microscopic traffic simulation model (VISSIM) based hybrid multimodal analyzes of port operations and provides a quantifiable assessment of resilience. The application of this tool is shown on six ports in the Southeast US. The waterside port simulation models were developed using vessel automatic identification system data and programed within a VISSIM simulation of landside operations. This hybrid modeling approach was used to visualize vessels and allow them to interact in both time and space with each other and landside infrastructure. Local and regional resilience was quantified through the analysis of time-dependent resilience plots and used as a performance measure in this study. The utility of the predictive port resilience assessment was demonstrated in response to Hurricane Matthew (2016). However, the novel procedure described herein can be applied to any port hazard. This research grows the understanding of the regional consequences of hurricane events and enhances the knowledge in the development of a stakeholder-focused tool to assess resilience.

Artificial intelligence is a branch of computer science, which includes natural language, intelligent processing, and professional methods. Since the birth of artificial intelligence, the technology and application fields have continued to grow, and the application fields have also continued to expand. This article aims to study the application of artificial intelligence technology in the management information system of container multimodal transportation and to provide convenient and efficient operation methods for container multimodal transportation. This paper proposes the C-means clustering method. Through the research and development of the terminal management system, it has achieved great success in automation, intelligent planning, and integrated management. At the same time, the EDI system is adopted, which mainly uses the combination of GPS and GIS information platform Internet network technology. Therefore, when evaluating the operation of the multimodal transport virtual container under the control of coproduction, the DEA method is used to operate the multimodal virtual container. The situation is analyzed and evaluated, and the multimodal transport virtual container is determined through investment. The experimental results of this article show that the artificial intelligence system achieves the most efficient multimodal transport management with the most efficient system model, combined with the leading container multimodal transport virtual enterprise, to provide the best way of the management process for the development of the multimodal transport management information system. The intact rate of container cargo during transportation is as high as 99.7%.

It is shown that the existing technology has a significant disadvantage: a total of 16 stages is used in the process of cargo delivery. A more rational technology is proposed with the use of a container developed by the authors with folding load-lifting pillars, which makes it possible to reduce the number of stages by almost half. The analysis of the factors determining the efficiency of road transport in the maintenance of containers based on the proposed self-unloading models is carried out.

Abstract:
Nowadays, seaports seek to achieve a better massification (massive transportation of containers) share of their hinterland transport by promoting rail and river connections in order to more rapidly evacuate increasing container traffic shipped by sea and to avoid landside congestion. The attractiveness of a seaport to shipping enterprises depends not only on its reliability and nautical qualities but also on its massified hinterland connection capacity. Contrary to what has been observed in Europe, the massification share of Le Havre seaport has stagnated in recent years. To overcome this situation, Le Havre Port Authority is putting into service a multimodal hub terminal linked only with massified modes. In this study, we focus on rail–rail transshipment of this new terminal, specifically on minimizing unproductive situations of cranes to improve crane productivity and to speed up freight train processing. To this end, an improving agent-based engineering strategy called the “crane anti-collision strategy” is proposed and tested using multi-method simulation software (Anylogic). In a numerical study, the simulation results reveal that our developed model is very satisfactory and outperforms other existing simulation models.

Система линейных контейнерных перевозок является одним из важнейших компонентов товаропроводящей сети, обеспечивающей связанность территорий, конкурентоспособность промышленности, развитие внешнеэкономической деятельности. В результате структурных изменений в мировом промышленном производстве линейные контейнерные перевозки получили динамичный импульс развития. В представленной статье рассмотрены специализированные методические подходы к обеспечению эффективности организации линейных контейнерных сервисов с использованием водного и наземного транспорта, определена целесообразность интегрированного управления мультимодальными контейнерными перевозками, сформирован комплекс мер, способствующих привлечению дополнительных грузопотоков, развитию экспорта транспортных услуг и цифровой трансформации в сфере мультимодальных контейнерных перевозок. Внедрение интегрированных инструментов управления линейными контейнерными перевозками позволяет повысить эффективность товародвижения. Линейное контейнерное судоходство ввиду этого становится основой транспортной интеграции при осуществлении международных мультимодальных перевозок. Эффективное использование активов линейного судоходства способствует повышению конкурентоспособности мультимодальных сервисов и российской терминальной инфраструктуры, стимулирует инвестиционный спрос, увеличение объемов производства в регионах, тяготеющих к портам, рост транзитного грузооборота, внося вклад в поступательное развитие внешней торговли и транспортной системы страны. The system of liner container shipping is one of most important components in the commodity distribution network, enabling the connectivity of territory, competitiveness of industry and development of foreign economic activity. As a result of structural changes in world industrial production, liner container shipping achieved a dynamic development acceleration. Represented article reflects specialized methodological approaches for providing the effectiveness of line container services applying water and land transport, verifies the reasonability of integrated management for multimodal container transportation, forming complex measures supporting the increase of line cargo traffic, developing export of transport services and digital transformation in the sphere of multimodal container transportation. Implementation of integrated procedures for managing liner container transportation is facilitating the efficiency of merchandise flows. On this evidence liner container shipping becomes the basis of transport integration in the international multimodal transportation. Efficient use of liner shipping assets provides the increase of competitiveness for multimodal services and Russian terminal infrastructure, stimulates investment demand, increase of production volumes in regions located towards ports, and the growth of transit cargo turnover, contributing to the progressive development of national transport system and foreign trade.

Abstract:
During the process of analyzing Russian and foreign studies in the field of multimodal cargo transportation, existing methods for improving the efficiency of the multimodal transport system are considered. Improving efficiency of multimodal transportation today is possible due to the optimization of the interaction system between the used modes of transport and transportation of goods. Cost reduction, optimization of cargo terminals, the formation and development of the transport corridors network also play an important role in improving this type of transportation. The use of the new capabilities of satellite navigation, as well as the importance of reducing the environmental load and fuel economy should not be underestimated. The minimization of risks throughout the field of multimodal transportation, the improvement of the legislative framework and document management processes are important. To solve these problems, experts propose methods for the operational management of cargo delivery and expedited transportation. Based on these methods, the place of transport logistics in the process of bringing goods to the consumer during multimodal transportation is determined. A methodology for designing a multimodal transport network has been developed, this methodology involves the formation and development of transport corridors, taking into account new conditions for the globalization of transportation. Researches on the organization of transportation using multimodal transport units and technologies (containers, contrailers, "running highway") have been conducted. Based on the theory of controlled networks and integer linear programming methods, the experts developed mathematical models for the distribution of cargo flows, the choice of the most favorable transportation routes, ideal loading of rolling stock, and transportation of goods using the best forwarding algorithm. Methods are proposed for assessing the maximum capacity of the transport network and predicting the interference of weather conditions in the process of goods transportation, based on the Ford-Fulkerson theorem on the maximum flow and minimum cross section and the use of the mathematical apparatus of Markov chains. As a result of the analysis, it was concluded that the lack of a universal methodology for managing multimodal transportation processes on the basis of a telecommunication platform requires the formulation and solution of the important scientific and practical problem - the development of popular organizational and management methods, technological solutions to ensure the effectiveness of multimodal transportation. The totality of the tasks to be solved in this case has important socio-economic significance for the Russian Federation.

Abstract:
<p>Com a reforma da legislação portuária e o processo de privatização dos portos, os terminais públicos marítimos passaram por significativa reestruturação. O elevado investimento e a simplificação da lei propiciaram o aumento de produtividade e de segurança e redução das tarifas. A melhoria nos terminais de contêineres viabilizou a consolidação da navegação de cabotagem de carga geral, como alternativa de transporte rodoviário. Estas mudanças trouxeram novas perspectivas na prestação de serviço por parte dos armadores, no sentido de atender plenamente as necessidades de transportes dos embarcadores, através de um serviço logístico completo porta-a-porta, como alternativa ao transporte porto-a-porto, incluindo a oferta de transporte multimodal, estufagem de contêineres e armazenagem. São ainda apresentados dois exemplos práticos de transporte de resinas no sentido norte-sul e de arroz, no sentido oposto, ilustrando como as mudanças no setor favoreceram a migração do transporte rodoviário para o marítimo.</p><p><em><strong>Abstract</strong> With the changing on port legislation and privatization process in Brazilian ports, the maritime public terminals passed trough an important restructuring.

Abstract:
Providing a proper level of logistics service is possible only with the constant improvement of the organization of multimodal transportation, which in turn is impossible without the use of high information technologies. Search for new markets and organization of multimodal transportation from cargo delivery to the consumer will increase the competitiveness of products and positively affect the financial condition of the enterprise. Perspective routes for the delivery of container cargoes from China to Europe are currently the corridors of the «silk path», which include land transportation of cargoes in container trains in Central Asia and the intersection of the Caspian and Black Seas by railway feres. In this regard, the development of technological solutions of multimodal transportation of products in the direction of Asia-Europe is relevant. The purpose of this article is to study theoretical and practical aspects, substantiation of practical recommendations for the logistics of multimodal transportation in global supply chains. For the implementation of economically grounded measures relating to the development of multimodal cargo delivery technologies, a comprehensive analytical study was conducted, regarding ways of organizing multimodal transportation, using universal containers, which allow to reduce the duration of loading and unloading works in transplant places and prevent losses and damage to the cargo in the process. Transportation and performance of freight operations. Many different job options for transportation routes allow professionals to make optimal choice. It is possible to evaluate routes by a set of basic criteria and evaluating their impact on the organization of logistics delivery route to China Europe. An analysis of international supplies of goods showed that one of the most effective ways of organizing international transportation is the use of multimodal delivery technologies that allow the most fully used advantage of various modes of transport on separate areas of the logistics chain. A set of basic criteria is proposed, which allows you to evaluate the overall delivery cost of transport, length of the route and the timing of delivery of goods using multimodal circuits. The calculation of total costs is carried out in the case of average tariffs for transportation, terminal processing, customs clearance. The delivery time is calculated taking into account the standards of transportation and loading and unloading works. The effectiveness of interaction in multimodal transportation depends on the readiness of partners to co-operation, based on understanding of its role in the supply chain.
