Optimal sequence of container ships in a string

“…For instance, the leg after the last port of call in Asia in the hithaul leg for trans-Pacific and Asia-Europe services, as the demand from Asia to the US/Europe is higher than that from the US/Europe to Asia. To simplify the exposition, we consider a liner service with only one export port (e.g., Shanghai) and one import port (e.g., Los Angeles), providing a weekly frequency, as most shipping services are weekly (Bell, Liu, Angeloudis, Fonzone, & Hosseinloo, 2011;Bell, Liu, Rioult, & Angeloudis, 2013;Wang, 2014;Wang & Meng, 2013).…”

A polynomial-time heuristic for the quay crane double-cycling problem with internal-reshuffling operations

“…Other study streams of maritime logistics may include liner shipping network management (Meng and Wang, 2011;Wang, 2014 andWang et al, 2014), container assignment and routing (Bell et al, 2011;Bell et al, 2013 andWang et al, 2015), and vessel bunker and speed management (Wang andMeng, 2012 andWang et al, 2013). Recent advances on liner shipping and port operations planning can be found in Meng et al (2014) and Bierwirth and Meisel (2015), respectively.…”

A slot reallocation model for containership schedule adjustment

“…Lu and W.-H. Mu rationalisation of slot utilisation . Such models are normally formulated as multicommodity flow problems, by path-based (such as Song and Dong 2012;Wang, Meng, and Sun 2013) or link-based (such as Lu and Chien 2010;Wang 2014) concepts, with cost minimisation, to determine how to transport containers from their origins to their destinations in a liner shipping network. The slot allocation problems that this study focuses on concern container selection for revenue or profit maximisation.…”
