Year: 2017 Language: english Author: Jason Monios and Rickard Bergqvist Genre: Textbook Publisher: CRC Press Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 299 Description: The motivation for producing this book was that, while there have been many academic publications on intermodal transport over the last decade, there is no currently available textbook suitable for the growing number of (particularly postgraduate) students studying this topic, such as our own students at the University of Gothenburg. There are some older books, such as Harris and Schmid (2003) and Lowe (2005), but, as well as providing an up-to-date volume, this book aims to link the operational aspects with the academic approaches published in recent years. This book is a textbook for students rather than a monograph or researchbased book. The goal is to describe how the system works, including a strong focus on practical operational aspects, and then to provide students with a number of frameworks that give context to the system, and finally to demonstrate tools for the analysis of some of the challenges typically associated with intermodal transport systems. More information on the practical aspects of intermodal systems is available online, and students are encouraged to search online for images of different kinds of equipment and videos of operations, such as loading and unloading. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the authors who contributed their knowledge and expertise to this book, as well as all those colleagues involved in empirical research on intermodal transport whose work we have drawn upon in the writing of this book.

Description: The motivation for producing this book was that, while there have been many
academic publications on intermodal transport over the last decade, there is no
currently available textbook suitable for the growing number of (particularly postgraduate)
students studying this topic, such as our own students at the University
of Gothenburg. There are some older books, such as Harris and Schmid (2003)
and Lowe (2005), but, as well as providing an up-to-date volume, this book aims
to link the operational aspects with the academic approaches published in recent
years.
This book is a textbook for students rather than a monograph or researchbased
book. The goal is to describe how the system works, including a strong
focus on practical operational aspects, and then to provide students with a number
of frameworks that give context to the system, and finally to demonstrate tools
for the analysis of some of the challenges typically associated with intermodal
transport systems. More information on the practical aspects of intermodal systems
is available online, and students are encouraged to search online for images
of different kinds of equipment and videos of operations, such as loading and
unloading.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the authors who contributed
their knowledge and expertise to this book, as well as all those colleagues
involved in empirical research on intermodal transport whose work we have
drawn upon in the writing of this book.
