6. Simulation Studies for Improved Efficiency in Road and Rail Freight Transports
Abstract : The demand for road and rail freight transport continues to grow with the expanding economy, while the climate crisis requires reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, tools and solutions for reducing fossil fuel use and enabling more efficient use of infrastructure are needed. READ MORE

7. Mathematical modelling of operating cycles for road vehicles
Abstract : Difficulties that commercial vehicles are facing in meeting regulation standards require ad-hoc solutions. Emissions can be dramatically lowered if the characteristics of the transport application are known in advance. READ MORE

8. Access management in intermodal freight terminals: The perspective of road haulier operations
Abstract : Given its possibilities of switching freight from road to more sustainable modes such as rail, inland water ways and seaways, intermodal freight transportation depends on environmental and economic variables. At the same time, intermodal freight transportation is essentially complex due to the variety of modes of transport and their corresponding actors. READ MORE

9. Towards a Model of Lean Freight Transport Operations
Abstract : Freight carrier operations are increasingly squeezed between intensified competition, a changed market structure, increased customer preferences, financial pressure from the owners and the influences from technological innovations. Despite an extensive work to coordinate individual resources, the results are not satisfactory. READ MORE
