A Combined Ferry Service Network Design and Dial-a-Ride System for the Kiel Fjord
Aslaksen, Ingvild Eide; Svanberg, Elisabeth Bjerke (Master thesis, 2020)Utviklingen av autonom teknologi åpner for nye løsninger og kan revolusjonere dagens infrastruktur for offentlig transport ved å tilby hyppigere avganger, kortere omveier samt on-demand tjenester. Denne masteroppgaven ... -
A Matheuristic Approach For Planning Interrelated Voyages With Separation Requirements In Maritime Transportation
Lunde, Solveig Godhavn (Master thesis, 2018)Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) vessels represent the primary source for transport- ing vehicles and other types of rolling material over long distances. How- ever, comparatively little operational research has been done on RoRo ... -
Analyzing different designs of liner shipping feeder networks: a case study
Msakni, Mohamed Kais; Fagerholt, Kjetil; Meisel, Frank; Lindstad, Elizabeth (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This paper proposes different network structures for a real liner shipping company to serve demands between Norwegian and European continental ports. The current practice of the shipping company deploys a feeder network ... -
The Aquaculture Service Vessel Routing Problem with Time Dependent Travel Times and Synchronization Constraints
Lianes, Ingeborg Margrete; Noreng, Maren Theisen; Fagerholt, Kjetil; Slette, Hans Tobias; Meisel, Frank (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)This paper studies the Aquaculture Service Vessel Routing Problem (ASVRP), which is an important planning problem arising in sea-based fish farming. In the ASVRP, there is a set of fish farms located in the sea, where each ... -
Can autonomous ships help short-sea shipping become more cost-efficient?
Msakni, Mohamed Kais; Akbar, Abeera; Aasen, Anna Kristine Almestad; Fagerholt, Kjetil; Meisel, Frank; Lindstad, Elizabeth (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)There is a strong political focus on moving cargo transportation from trucks to ships to reduce environmental emissions and road congestion. We study how the introduction of a future generation of autonomous ships can be ... -
An economic analysis of introducing autonomous ships in a short‐sea liner shipping network
Akbar, Abeera; Aasen, Anna Kristine Almestad; Msakni, Mohamed Kais; Fagerholt, Kjetil; Lindstad, Elizabeth; Meisel, Frank (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The development of autonomous ships is at an advanced stage. It seems to be just a question of time before such ships become available at an industrial scale. In this paper, we investigate the economic advantages of utilizing ... -
An exact solution method for the capacitated item-sharing and crowdshipping problem
Behrend, Moritz; Meisel, Frank; Fagerholt, Kjetil; Andersson, Henrik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The item-sharing and crowdshipping problem combines two concepts of the sharing economy, namely item-sharing and crowdshipping. Item-sharing is about renting items among members of a sharing community. Crowdshipping addresses ... -
A MIP-based heuristic for a single trade routing and scheduling problem in roll-on roll-off shipping
Hansen, Jone Reinlund; Fagerholt, Kjetil; Meisel, Frank (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)We study a single trade ship routing and scheduling problem for a roll-on roll-off shipping company. Along the given trade, there is a number of contracts for transportation of cargoes between port pairs. Each contract ... -
Planning interrelated voyages with separation requirements in roll-on roll-off shipping
Hansen, Jone Reinlund; Fagerholt, Kjetil; Meisel, Frank; Rakke, Jørgen Glomvik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)We consider a new problem of planning interrelated voyages with separation requirements along a single trade in roll-on roll-off shipping. Along a given trade with a sequence of port calls, there is a number of contracts ... -
Scheduling ships with uncertain arrival times through the Kiel Canal
Andersen, Tina; Hove, Joakim Høgset; Fagerholt, Kjetil; Meisel, Frank (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The Kiel Canal is a two-way waterway that connects the Baltic Sea and the North Sea. The canal consists of an alternating sequence of narrow transit segments and wider siding segments. This calls for solving a ship scheduling ... -
Scheduling two-way ship traffic for the Kiel Canal: Model, extensions and a matheuristic
Meisel, Frank; Fagerholt, Kjetil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The Kiel Canal is an artificial waterway of about 100 km that connects the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. It allows ships to save several hundred kilometers of travel distance compared with going around the Jutland Peninsula ... -
Ship Traffic Scheduling and Disruption Management for the Kiel Canal - A Simulation-Optimization Approach
Skjæveland, Guro; Hilstad, Knut Viljar (Master thesis, 2018)The Kiel Canal is a nearly 100 km long artificial waterway that connects the North Sea and the Baltic Sea through the north of Germany. The canal alternates between wide and narrow segments, and on the narrow segments the ...
