A supply chain network design model for biomass co-firing in coal-fired power plants

Roni, Md.S.; Eksioglu, Sandra D.; Searcy, Erin; Jha, Krishna - In: Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and … 61 (2014) C, pp. 115-134

We propose a framework for designing the supply chain network for biomass co-firing in coal-fired power plants. This framework is inspired by existing practices with products with similar physical characteristics to biomass. We present a hub-and-spoke supply chain network design model for...

Fleet deployment, network design and hub location of liner shipping companies

Gelareh, Shahin; Pisinger, David - In: Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and … 47 (2011) 6, pp. 947-964

A mixed integer linear programming formulation is proposed for the simultaneous design of network and fleet deployment of a deep-sea liner service provider. The underlying network design problem is based on a 4-index (5-index by considering capacity type) formulation of the hub location problem...

Technology, Business Models and Network Structure in the Airline Industry

Fageda, Xavier; Flores-Fillol, Ricardo - Xarxa de Referència en Economia Aplicada (XREAP) - 2010

Network airlines have been increasingly focusing their operations on hub airports through the exploitation of connecting traffic, allowing them to take advantage of economies of traffic density, which are unequivocal in the airline industry. Less attention has been devoted to airlines? decisions...

Characterisation of airline networks: A North American and European comparison

Reynolds-Feighan, Aisling - In: Journal of Air Transport Management 16 (2010) 3, pp. 109-120

This paper contrasts the North American and European air transport markets using the extensive Official Airline Guide Databases. The pattern of network development in the two continental regions is examined using data for 1996â€“2008. The top ten carriers in both regions are analysed...
