The effect of foldable containers on the costs of container fleet management in liner shipping networks. Maritime Economics & Logistics. 2012. Vol. 14. No. 4. P. 455-479. DOI: 10.1057/mel.2012.16. Shintani, K. & Konings, R. & Imai, A. Combinable containers: A container innovation to save container fleet and empty container repositioning costs.
In our ECR problem, the shipping company considers both transporting loaded containers and repositioning of empty containers over a planning horizon. Because empty repositioning incurs costs and consumes vessel capacity, foldable containers are used to reduce repositioning costs.
zitF inventory level of foldable containers at port iat the end of period t The total operating cost consists of consists of transportation, repositioning, holding, penalty, folding, and unfolding costs. The transportation costs consist of expenses incurred during container flow.
We note in Table 10that the total costs of the standard container case have not changed, because the total costs are not affected by folding and unfolding costs. For further analysis, we compare the transportation and repositioning quantities of foldable containers with various folding and unfolding costs in Section 5.4. Table 9.
Our standardized solar power and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
