Book Description

This book belongs to the Port Economics and Global Supply Chain Management strand of the Palgrave Studies in Maritime Economics book series, commissioned by Hercules Haralambides. This book discusses the main drivers that affect the introduction and growth of short sea shipping services. It describes and analyses the main operational concepts of short sea shipping and introduces relevant administrative and strategic approaches that enable its sustainable execution. Short Sea Shipping (SSS) comprises freight and passenger mobility by waterborne transport at a limited range, without crossing an ocean. Being a direct competitor to land-based transport modes, it uses ports and inland waterways to complement traditional transportation systems, increase capacity, improve flexibility, and contribute towards the goal of sustainable mobility. The reader will be introduced to various aspects of short sea shipping including benefits and shortfalls, relevant regulations and policies, and the applicability of short sea services within a given case or scenario.

Book Description

Since 2007, the biennial International Conferences on Dynamics in Logistics (LDIC) offers researchersand practitioners from logistics, operations research, production, industrial and electrical engineering aswell as from computer science an opportunity to meet and to discuss the latest developments in thisparticular research domain. From February 23th to 25th 2022 for the eighth time, LDIC 2022 was held inBremen, Germany. Similar to its seven predecessors, the Bremen Research Cluster for Dynamics inLogistics (LogDynamics) organized this conference. The spectrum of topics reaches from the dynamicmodeling, planning and control of processes over supply chain management and maritime logistics toinnovative technologies and robotic applications for cyber-physical production and logistics systems.LDIC 2022 provided a forum for the discussion of advances in that matter. The conference programconsisted of keynote speeches and research papers selected by a severe double-blind reviewing process.Within these proceedings all the papers are published. By this, the proceedings give an interdisciplinaryoutline on the state of the art of dynamics in logistics as well as identify challenges and solutions forlogistics today and tomorrow.

Book Description

"This report presents an evaluation of the potential for moving intermodal containers on chassis, non-containerized trailers, or rail cars on marine highways in North America. The report is especially valuable for its assessment of the conditions for feasibility; its analysis of the economic, technical, regulatory, and logistical barriers inhibiting greater use of the marine highway system; and proposed solutions for barrier elimination. This report will enable public and private stakeholders to better understand the underlying reasons for the current underutilization of the marine highway system. This marine highway system (often referred to as short sea shipping) includes navigable rivers, lakes, canals, seaways, and coastal waterways. Currently, less than 4% of the Nation's domestic freight moves by water."--Pub. desc.
