Abstract:

This volume contains a number of technical papers dealing with intercity freight transportation. Collectively, these systems-oriented papers consider a wide range of subject matter including transportation facilitation, commodity flow, regulation, automatic control, demand modeling, transportation energy, evaluation of innovation, tariff computerization, network analysis and new concepts for freight transportation. In addition to those subjects that deal with the transportation system or process, there are papers that treat specific modal considerations. These include discussion of aerodynamic drag effects on rail piggyback operations, rail freight yard technology review, summary of motor carrier return on investment considerations in a regulated industry, results of pipeline studies and use of simulation for waterway navigation and control.
