Foldable container in empty container repositioning in intermodal transportation network of Belt and Road Initiative: strengths and limitations

In 2013, the concept of the ‘Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st-Century Maritime Silk Road (Belt and Road)’ was initiated by the Chinese government, which involves Asian, European and African continents and their adjacent seas. Logistics plays a core role in such a large framework of economy and trade. In recent years, China, European Union, and Southeast Asia pay much attention to the design and development of the intermodal transportation network towards both economic and environmental efficiency. In this paper, we propose an empty container repositioning model in the intermodal transportation network of Belt and Road (B&R) Initiative by considering both standard and foldable containers. In this model, empty containers are repositioned from the inland of the original area, such as China, to other areas of B&R Initiative related countries and regions, such as European Union and Southeast Asia. We develop a mixed integer linear programming model to determine the optimal repositioning of empty containers via the intermodal transportation network. An Artificial Bee Colony algorithm is developed to solve large size problems in practice and numerical experiments are conducted to show the efficiency of our proposed algorithm. We provide managerial insights regarding the impact on the network performance of foldable containers transportation.

地铁大跨暗挖隧道下穿桥隧结构变形影响分析

以某地铁工程中单洞双线暗挖隧道下穿桥隧结构为例,通过实测数据分析及数值模拟验证,得出:在现有施工方法及地层条件下,上部既有桥隧结构的变形整体符合Peck单凹槽曲线,其中既有隧道结构沉降曲线比既有桥梁结构沉降曲线更接近Peck公式;地层损失率在0.20%～0.24%之间。分析结果说明,三维数值模拟可较为准确地预测上覆既有桥隧结构的沉降趋势,模拟结果与实测值差异较小。

铁路客货列车分摊线路使用费比例的研究

客货列车均对线路造成损伤,但因运行速度、轴重和运量不同,则对线路损伤的程度不同,所承担线路使用费不同。从工务维修角度出发,以对线路使用费有决定性作用的钢轨抽换成本和轨道状态维修成本作为研究对象,建立客货列车线路使用费分摊比例的工程模型,对我国铁路进行大量现场调研,并用所建立的工程模型对现场调研数据进行处理,得到我国客运货运分摊线路使用费的比例。

近年来,海上风电场迅猛发展,风电维护船成为迫切需求。借鉴小水线面双体船优良的阻力性能和穿浪双体船优秀的耐波性能,根据中国海上风电场维护船航行的环境和使用特点,选用阻力和耐波性能优良的长球首尾双体船型作为风电场维护船型。在此基础上采用CFD数值仿真计算阻力性能,运用NAPA软件计算耐波性能。从而得到不同条件下较优良的船型,为海上风电维护船的设计提供一定的参考和借鉴。     

A study of factors influencing the severity of road crashes involving drunk drivers and non drunk drivers

In this study, an attempt has been made to develop Multinomial Logit (MNL) model by analysing the drunken and non drunken drivers involved in road crashes on Indian highways. Multinomial Logit model has been deployed to assess the influence of various parameters like vehicular, environment and geometric factors on the set of drivers who were found to be drunk at the time of getting involved in the road crash and those who were not under the influence of alcohol at the time of meeting with the road crash. The total economic cost of road crashes in the case of non-drunk driver road crash is Rs. 1046.27 million whereas in the case of drunk driver road crashes it is estimated to be Rs. 204.50 million. Further, it can be observed that economic cost of drunk driver road crashes is varying from 13 to 19 % across different types of road crashes.
