About the development of multimodal transportation based on modeling of cargo placement

Abstract

The organization of logistics transportation management systems with the interaction of various modes of transport is an important present problem of the development of the transport system, as well as the development of transport infrastructure with the construction of terminal complexes and ports providing multimodal transport and intermodal technologies. This problem includes the task of integrated transport development within the framework of multimodal transport hubs (transport and logistics centers). Multimodal transport hubs are capable to solve tasks in participants work coordinating in the transport process within the framework of the existing transport system, and tasks in modernizing of the transport system and creating a modern support transport grid. A great contribution to the development of the transport system is also made by modeling. Modeling of the rational cargo placement in a vehicle will make it possible to achieve the most rational using of space in a vehicle, which will also bring economic benefits.
