Abstract
Intermodal transport is receiving increased attention due to the increasing
demand for container transport in national and international trade, concerns on
the sustainable development of the economy and the environment, and the
recurring road congestion problems. In this paper, we first introduce
intermodal transport networks and analyze the approaches for modeling
intermodal transport networks in the literature. Next, a general framework for
modeling intermodal transport networks is presented. In particular, a generic
intermodal transport network model is formulated for the evolution of container
flows in nodes and links taking into account time dependencies. The optimal
route choices for container transport over the network are determined by
solving a linear programming problem. Simulation experiments illustrate the
properties of the proposed model.
