Operations Research for green logistics - An overview of aspects, issues, contributions and challenges (2011, background): “Macharis and Bontekoning (2004) argue that intermodal freight transportation research is an emerging field that needs different types of models compared to those applied to unimodal transport.”
The multiple traveling salesman problem: an overview of formulations and solution procedures (2006, methodology): “The mTSP with time windows can be used to model problems in intermodal freight transport , as noted by Macharis and Bontekoning[22].”
Traveling Salesman Problem: an Overview of Applications, Formulations, and Solution Approaches (2010, background): “For more comprehensive review on various application of mTSP authors advise to refer papers by (Macharis & Bontekoning, 2004; Wang & Regan, 2002; Basu et al., 2000).”
Operations research at container terminals: a literature update (2007, background): “A review of opportunities for the application of operations research methods in intermodal freight transport can be found, e.g., in Macharis and Bontekoning (2004).”
Port Economics, Policy and Management: Content Classification and Survey (2011, background): “However, due to a ‘publication time gap’ between submitting a paper and the final publication—widely accepted in review studies (cf. Macharis and Bontekoning, 2003; Bontekoning et al., 2004; Steenken, et al., 2004; Stahlbock and Voss, 2008), studies published in 2007 and 2008 are discussed in more…”
Port Economics, Policy and Management: Review of an Emerging Research Field (2010, background): “The characteristics of both the ‘pre-paradigmatic’ phase and the ‘mature’ phase are those defined by the science philosopher Kuhn, and endorsed by Bontekoning et al. (2004) in their study of intermodal transportation research; see also: Macharis and Bontekoning (2003).”
Generalized transport costs in intermodal freight transport (2012, background): “…provision of an empty container to the shipper and subsequent transportation of a full container to the terminal, whereas post-haulage involve the distribution of a full container from the terminal to a receiver and the return to the terminal of an empty container (Macharis and Bontekoning, 2004).”
An Operational Model for Empty Container Management (2005, background): “and this means that the first and the last movements must be performed by lorry ( Macharis and Bontekoning, 2004 ).”
