This paper presents the application of simulation to determine the inspection resources needed to minimize disruption resulting from increased security inspection of containers at an intermodal terminal. The initial simulation run intentionally started with a large... by Karen | Dec 1, 2008 | Center & Office Research, Dr. Bernard Schroer, Dr. Gregory A. Harris, P.E., Dr. Michael D.

This paper presents a scenario analysis to determine the impact of a terrorist attack at Köhlbrand bridge across the river Elbe on the transportation chains on metropolitan Hamburg. It is of special interest to decide how to redirect trucks for the time of impossible... by Karen | Oct 1, 2008 | Center & Office Research, Dr. Bernard Schroer, Dr. Gregory A.

This paper presents the development of a simulation model to evaluate the impact of increased 18-wheel truck traffic on the I-10 tunnel crossing the Mobile River in downtown Mobile, Alabama. The increased truck traffic is resulting from overall globalization of... by Karen | Oct 1, 2008 | Center & Office Research, Dr. Bernard Schroer, Dr. Gregory A.

This paper presents a scenario analysis to determine the impact of a ship disaster on river Elbe on the transportation chain of the port of Hamburg. It is of special interest to decide how to dodge ships for the time of the disaster, and to detour trains and trucks... by Karen | Oct 1, 2008 | Center & Office Research, Dr. Bernard Schroer, Dr. Gregory A.
