Data underlying the publication: An assessment methodology for a modular terminal concept for container barging in seaports

This research evaluates the potential of a Modular Mobile Terminal (MMT) concept to improve the operations of container barges in seaports. To do so, a time and cost assessment method is developed. The MMT concept is then further evaluated using choice-driven models consisting of a demand model (mode choice), a supply model (services design and pricing of a barge operator), and a competition model (reactions and interactions of barge operators to this innovation). All these choice-driven models are applied to the situation with and without MMTs.

本研究评估了模块化移动终端（Modular Mobile Terminal，MMT）概念在提升海港集装箱驳船作业效能方面的应用潜力。为此，本研究开发了一套时间与成本评估方法。随后，本研究采用选择驱动模型对该模块化移动终端概念开展进一步评估，此类模型涵盖需求模型（模式选择）、供给模型（驳船运营商的服务设计与定价）以及竞争模型（驳船运营商针对该项创新的反应与互动）。所有上述选择驱动模型均分别应用于部署与未部署模块化移动终端的两种场景。
