Title: | Assessment of the impact of an additional intermodal barge terminal on a waterway network | Authors: | CARIS, An JANSSENS, Gerrit K. RAMAEKERS, Katrien Macharis, Cathy |
Issue Date: | 2009 | Source: | ASIMMOD 2009 - Asian Simulation and Modelling Conference. p. 99-105. | Abstract: | In this paper a discrete event simulation model for intermodal barge transport (SIMBA) is presented. The intermodal context in Belgium is described. The simulation model covers the hinterland waterway network of a major port in Western-Europe. The simulation modeling approach is elaborated. The SIMBA model is part of a larger decision support system for intermodal transport policy making (DSSITP). The simulation model is applied to analyze potential impacts of adding a new intermodal barge terminal to a hinterland network. | Keywords: | Discrete event simulation; intermodal freight transport; ex-ante analysis; decision support system; policy making;Discrete event simulation, intermodal freight transport, ex-ante analysis, decision support | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/10467 | Category: | C2 | Type: | Proceedings Paper |
