Purpose: A rising global container throughput has necessitated the need for more efficient terminals. This work focuses on identifying past developments, important methods, key performance indicators and the future trends, related to the main decision tasks in an inland rail-road terminal. Prime...

Purpose: With the increasing environmental pollution due to the growing freight transportation, the roll-on roll-off (RoRo) transport is considered one of the most promising alternatives in short sea shipping to the dominant pure road transport. The interruption of the transport chain by freight...

Purpose: Rising handling volumes and increasingly profound disruptions of global transport chains are placing severe stresses on container terminal processes. This affects landside handling in particular. In order to relieve this burden, more and more truck appointment systems have been...

Purpose: On the one hand, the increasing growth in vessel size and land-based capacity constraints raise the need for optimizing the layout and process design at container terminals. On the other hand, the temporary storage of containers in the yard decouples the material flow of incoming and...
