Modelling and solving a real-world truck-trailer scheduling problem in container transportation with separate moving objects

Container transportation is pivotal in global supply chains, facilitating the exchange of goods between companies across different countries. Given the exceedingly high operational costs of transporting containers, optimizing itinerary schedules can yield ...

A Measure of Dynamical Efficiency for Multimodal Interconnected Urban Systems

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Leonardo Bellocchi

Complex network theory describes network performance mostly based on topological characteristics, like betweenness centrality. This work integrates concepts from complex networks and traffic engineering. We propose a new measure for spatial networks and, i ...

Continuous Monitoring of Bed-Load Transport in a Laboratory Flume Using an Impact Sensor

Christophe Ancey, Blaise Etienne Marceau Dhont, Gauthier Paul Daniel Marie Rousseau

Bed-load transport rate in gravel-bed rivers shows large non-Gaussian fluctuations, even under steady flow conditions. The development of high-resolution measurement techniques during the last two decades creates research opportunities to study the intermi ...

Ecomorphodynamic conditions for the emergence of river anabranching patterns

Paolo Perona, Benoît Crouzy, Paolo d'Odorico

The appearance of the regular vegetated ridge patterns observed in some ephemeral rivers of semi-arid regions (Nanson, Tooth, & Knigthon 2002) has previously been explained by hydraulic arguments (optimization of the bed load transport capacity, see Huang ...

Taste heterogeneity and latent preferences in the choice behaviour of freight transport operators

Michel Bierlaire

In this paper we show that individual attitudes of road carriers and their latent preferences toward specific freight service attributes do play a role in determining their mode choices. Specifically, we contribute to the empirical literature on freight ag ...

Impact analysis of a flexible air transportation system

Michel Bierlaire, Claudio Leonardi, Matteo Salani, Bilge Atasoy

The paper provides analytical evidence of the added-value of flexibility for air transportation systems. More specifically, the impact of a new innovative modular aircraft on the operations of an airline is deeply analyzed. The impact analysis is carried o ...

Containers assembled in fluid and corresponding production

Jürgen Brugger, Alcherio Martinoli, Cristina Martin Olmos, Grégory Mermoud

A method for fabricating a fluid container, wherein at least two half containers are mated in said fluid to be contained in said container. This method allows the incorporation of prefabricated devices into each half containers as well as the functional co ...

Nonlinear Vibration Of A Three-Dimensional Moving Gantry Crane Subjected To A Travelling Trolley Hoisting A Swinging Object

Mehdi Sadeghpour, Elyas Ghafoori

Nonlinear vibration of a three-dimensional moving gantry crane carrying a trolley hoisting a swinging object is studied in this paper. A finite element method is used to solve nonlinear coupled governing equations of the structure. A combinational techniqu ...

One-Dimensional Numerical Modelling Of Mobile Bed Evolution In A Flume With A Side Weir

Anton Schleiss, Burkhard Rosier

Side weirs are widely used to control flow processes along a channel or river. The lateral loss of water reduces the sediment transport capacity in the main-channel leading to local sediment deposition near the overflow. The design discharge to be diverted ...
