This book provides a coherent and systematic view of the key
concepts, principles, and techniques in maritime container
transport and logistics chains including all the main segments:
international maritime trade and logistics, freight logistics,
container logistics, vessel logistics, port and terminal
management, and sustainability issues in maritime transport.
Container Logistics and Maritime Transport emphasizes analytical
methods and current optimization models to tackle challenging
issues in maritime transport and logistics. This book takes a
holistic approach to cover all the main segments of the container
shipping supply chains to achieve an efficient and effective
logistics service system across the entire global transport chain.
Sustainability issues such as social concern and carbon emissions
from shipping and ports are also discussed. Each maritime transport
segment is addressed using an approach from qualitative/descriptive
analytics to quantitative/prescriptive analytics. Cutting-edge
optimization models are presented and explained to tackle various
strategic, tactical, and operational planning problems. The book
will help readers better understand operations management in global
maritime container transport chain. It will also provide practical
principles and effective techniques and tools for researchers to
push forward the frontiers of knowledge and for practitioners to
implement decision support systems. It will be directly relevant to
academic courses related to maritime transport, maritime logistics,
transport management, international shipping, port management,
container shipping, container logistics, shipping supply chain, and
international logistics.
