  2. 11. Logistics Service Providers’ Environmental Management

    Author : Christina Maack; Maria Huge-Brodin; Mats Abrahamsson; Magnus Blinge; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to give a holistic description of logistics service providers’ environmental management, which has been lacking in literature. The aim is also to analyse how the logistics service providers’ environmental management provides value to their business, and to discuss its role in their business. READ MORE

  4. 12. Towards greener supply chains : Inclusion of environmental activities in relationships between logistics service providers and shippers

    Author : Uni Martinsen (Sallnäs); Maria Huge-Brodin; Maria Björklund; Joseph Sarkis; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Green supply chain management; inter-organisational relationships; environmental activities; logistics service providers; shippers;

    Abstract : It is well-recognised that companies are under pressure to take responsibility for the environmental impact of their operations. Logistics service providers (LSPs), who through their transport and logistics operations have a large negative impact on the environment, are one type of supply chain actor that is under such pressure.

  6. 14. Energy consumption prediction and routing for electric commercial vehicles

    Author : Rafael Basso; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bayesian Inference; Machine Learning; Energy Consumption; Green Logistics; Reinforcement Learning; Electric Vehicles; Vehicle Routing; Eco-Routing;

    Abstract : With the recent growing interest for electric vehicles as one of the initiatives to help tackle pollution and climate change, several opportunities and challenges emerge. This kind of vehicle releases no tailpipe emissions, is quieter, more energy efficient in terms of tank-to-wheels and simpler, which can lead to less maintenance. READ MORE
