Abstract:The main goal of this study was to demonstrate relevance of an integrated approach including psychosocial determinants of voluntary travel behavior change (VTBC). The study, conducted in France, aimed to influence car users to use public transport. Compared to previous VTBC programs, this one proposes a more qualitative accompanying framework to participants. Car users participated in the program based on a committing recruitment, an individualized counseling meeting, and a free monthly travel card on public transport, altogether creating a strong commitment context for long-term behavior change. Results reveal the effectiveness of the method since a majority of test travelers continue to use public transport up to three months. Moreover, the program increases the positive attitude toward the bus and “mobility capital” of participants.
摘要:本研究的主要目的是证明综合方法的相关性,包括自愿旅行行为改变(VTBC)的心理社会决定因素。这项在法国进行的研究旨在影响汽车使用者使用公共交通工具。与以前的VTBC项目相比,这一项目为参与者提出了一个更具质量的伴随框架。汽车用户参与该计划的基础是承诺招聘、个性化咨询会议和公共交通上的免费月票,共同为长期行为改变创造了强有力的承诺环境。结果显示了该方法的有效性,因为大多数测试旅行者继续使用公共交通工具长达三个月。此外,该计划提高了参与者对公交车和“流动资本”的积极态度。

Abstract:This article analyzes impact that initiatives for improving freight system performance can generate in fuel distribution in urban areas, especially in mega-cities. We propose a comprehensive methodology to identify initiatives with the most potential in terms of cost and efficiency for the fuel distribution process in urban areas, and then to assess impacts of such initiatives in terms of environmental and economic sustainability. Results indicated off-hours deliveries as having a higher potential to increase sustainability in fuel distribution within city borders. Therefore, an application of the proposed methodology is presented to assess results of a live experiment of off-hours deliveries held in a fuel-distribution process in a mega-city in comparison to daytime deliveries, which is companies’ standard practice. Several positive results were observed during off-hour deliveries, such as reduction in fuel consumption, reduction in the emission of air pollutants and greenhouse gases, reduction in travel time, increase in average operational speed as well as the possibility of carrying out two trips with the same vehicle per day leading to a reduction in expenses with drivers when there is an increase in daily truck deliveries. Although the case assessed was conducted during the Olympic Games of Rio de Janeiro, the method can be applied in any other mega-city.
摘要:本文分析了提高货运系统性能的举措对城市地区,特别是特大城市燃料分配的影响。我们提出了一种综合方法,以确定在城市地区燃料分配过程的成本和效率方面最具潜力的举措,然后评估这些举措在环境和经济可持续性方面的影响。结果表明,非工作时间的交付更有可能提高城市边界内燃料分配的可持续性。因此,将所提出的方法应用于评估大型城市燃料分配过程中非工作时间交付与日间交付的现场实验结果,日间交付是公司的标准做法。在非工作时间交货期间观察到了一些积极的结果,如燃料消耗减少、空气污染物和温室气体排放减少、旅行时间减少、,平均运营速度的提高以及每天用同一辆车进行两次旅行的可能性,导致在卡车每日交付量增加时,司机的费用减少。尽管评估的案例是在里约热内卢奥运会期间进行的,但该方法可以应用于任何其他特大城市。

Abstract:In the present research, a methodology is developed to determine the relationship between the variables that define the use of liquefied natural gas in short sea shipping in Europe, through the use of data-mining techniques. The project takes place in the European space, which includes data from 30 countries, the 28 members of the European Union plus Norway and Iceland. A Bayesian network is constructed with the 35 indicators selected, which are classified into five different categories: international trade and transport, economy and finance, population and social condition, environment and energy, and institutional and political. It is found that capacity of liquefied natural gas regasification terminals under construction and modal distribution of cargo transport by inland waters are the two root nodes of the network. In addition, the variables of transport and international trade and economy and finance become the most important in the decision to implement liquefied natural gas as marine fuel, while those of environment and energy and population and condition are the most dependent on the network.
摘要:在本研究中,通过使用数据挖掘技术,开发了一种方法来确定定义欧洲短海运中液化天然气使用的变量之间的关系。该项目在欧洲空间进行,其中包括来自30个国家、欧盟28个成员国以及挪威和冰岛的数据。贝叶斯网络由选定的35个指标构成,这些指标分为五个不同的类别:国际贸易和运输、经济和金融、人口和社会状况、环境和能源以及制度和政治。研究发现,在建液化天然气再气化码头的能力和内陆水域货物运输的模式分布是该网络的两个根节点。此外,在决定将液化天然气用作船用燃料时,运输和国际贸易以及经济和金融等变量成为最重要的变量,而环境和能源以及人口和条件等变量则最依赖于网络。

Abstract:This article focuses on determining the best routes between affected areas and relief depots in sudden-onset disasters and selecting the best depot that can serve at the shortest response time. These decisions are crucial in emergency humanitarian logistics management since the response time to affected areas dramatically influences the survival rate and timely availability of relief items. This article considers many real-life aspects to deal with the problem realistically. A framework based on Geographic Information System (GIS) is presented that takes into account widths and structures of different types of infrastructure (roads, tunnels, and bridges), the survivability of infrastructure according to its spatial proximity to a potential disaster, and legal speed limits in the pre- and post-disaster decision processes. A case study was carried out for an earthquake disaster scenario in Erzincan province of Turkey and various scenarios were generated to analyze the solutions under different conditions.
摘要:本文的重点是确定突发灾害中受灾地区和救援仓库之间的最佳路线,并选择能够在最短响应时间内服务的最佳仓库。这些决定对紧急人道主义后勤管理至关重要,因为对受灾地区的反应时间极大地影响了救援物资的存活率和及时供应。本文考虑了现实生活中的许多方面来现实地处理这个问题。提出了一个基于地理信息系统(GIS)的框架,该框架考虑了不同类型基础设施(道路、隧道和桥梁)的宽度和结构,根据其与潜在灾害的空间接近程度,基础设施的生存能力,以及灾前和灾后决策过程中的法定速度限制。对土耳其埃尔津坎省的地震灾害场景进行了案例研究,并生成了各种场景来分析不同条件下的解决方案。

Abstract:While personality testing has been used extensively in pre-employment screening, authors have noted the possibility of these tools introducing bias into the employment process and potentially violating the Americans with Disabilities Act and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. An alternative pre-employment screening using Clifton StrengthsFinder® Assessment top five leadership traits is tested to see if there is a relationship between the results and on-the-job performance for existing fleet managers of a large trucking firm. Results of the study reveal that there is a correlation between certain top five leadership traits and several measures of fleet manager performance used by their employer for evaluation.
摘要:虽然人格测试已广泛用于就业前筛选,但作者注意到这些工具可能会在就业过程中引入偏见,并可能违反《美国残疾人法案》和1964年《民权法案》第七章。使用Clifton StrengthsFinder®评估前五种领导特质进行另一种就业前筛选,以测试一家大型货运公司现有车队经理的结果与在职表现之间是否存在关系。研究结果显示,某些前五名领导特质与雇主用于评估车队经理绩效的若干指标之间存在相关性。

Global Shipping and Port Competitiveness: The Traditionalist and Supply Chain Perspectives Global shipping is a volatile industry, but it is rapidly recovering from the 2016 market which saw the consolidation and bankruptcy of several shipping lines, including the Korean giant Hanjin Shipping. This forced global shippers and carriers to rethink how they are going to remain competitive in a market that still has significant overcapacity in 2018, and for the foreseeable future. Luckily, 2017 was a good year financially for the large carriers with improving operating margins. Extending the first special themed issue in summer 2018, this second special issue on global shipping and ports focuses on how shippers and carriers are becoming more flexible in their strategies and operations to create new competitive advantages. It addresses issues with the methods used to study ports, strategic impacts on large and small vessels, hinterland constraints to ports, as well as the emergence of supply chain theory to guide port priorities. The lead article by Chang and Talley examines port competitiveness from the perspective of traditional port efficiency and the more contemporary supply chain viewpoint. It points out that there are some critical methodological issues in current port literature that may explain contradictory findings. They recommend directions for future research to resolve many of these issues. The second article by Yalcin, Chakravorty, and Yun focuses on the contemporary perspective to discuss how supply chain agility and ambidexterity concepts can be used to improve port competitiveness through the theoretical lens of the Balanced Theory of Port Competitiveness. They find that both explorative and exploitive practices are beneficial to port competitiveness. The third article by Lu and Yeh examines the impact of larger container vessels on port agility, which leads to greater efficiency and profits, but may harm customer service and safety. They note how Europe and Asia differ in how they tend to prioritize competitive factors from the proliferation of mega container vessels. The fourth paper by Fliehr, Zimmer, and Smith focuses on hinterland access to ports that affects port operations and prices. In the context of Brazil, the authors examine how inefficiencies in farm-to-port logistics affect farm gate pricing.
全球航运和港口竞争力:传统主义者和供应链视角全球航运是一个动荡的行业,但它正在从2016年的市场中迅速复苏,当时包括韩国巨头韩进海运在内的几家航运公司合并破产。这迫使全球托运人和承运人重新思考,在2018年和可预见的未来,他们将如何在产能严重过剩的市场中保持竞争力。幸运的是,对于运营利润率不断提高的大型航空公司来说,2017年是财务状况良好的一年。继2018年夏季的第一期主题特刊之后,第二期全球航运和港口特刊聚焦于托运人和承运人如何在战略和运营方面变得更加灵活,以创造新的竞争优势。它解决了研究港口的方法、对大型和小型船只的战略影响、内陆对港口的限制,以及指导港口优先事项的供应链理论的出现等问题。Chang和Talley的主要文章从传统的港口效率和更现代的供应链角度考察了港口竞争力。它指出,当前港口文献中存在一些关键的方法论问题,这些问题可能解释了相互矛盾的发现。他们建议未来的研究方向,以解决其中的许多问题。Yalcin、Chakravorty和Yun的第二篇文章聚焦于当代视角,通过港口竞争力平衡理论的理论视角,讨论如何利用供应链敏捷性和双元性概念来提高港口竞争力。他们发现,探索性和开发性实践都有利于提高港口竞争力。陆和叶的第三篇文章探讨了大型集装箱船对港口灵活性的影响,这会提高效率和利润,但可能会损害客户服务和安全。他们指出,欧洲和亚洲在优先考虑大型集装箱船扩散的竞争因素方面存在差异。Fliehr、Zimmer和Smith的第四篇论文重点关注影响港口运营和价格的内陆港口准入。在巴西的背景下,作者研究了从农场到港口的物流效率低下如何影响农场大门定价。

Abstract:The purpose of this study is to first determine the current incidence of exit from the United States' motor-carrier industry. Second, we develop and test an econometric model of the determinants of motor-carrier exit. Using recent data derived from the Motor Carrier Management Information System database, we find that motor-carrier exit continues to be quite prevalent. This study also finds that motor-carrier crash rates are positively associated with the likelihood of exit from the industry, while fleet size and number of commodity segments handled by motor carriers are negatively associated with a carrier's likelihood of exit. Study findings also suggest that for-hire carriers are more likely to exit, and carriers handling hazardous materials are less likely to exit from the motor-carrier industry. The article discusses these findings, including managerial and public policy implications.
摘要:本研究的目的是首先确定目前退出美国汽车运输业的发生率。其次,我们开发并测试了一个关于汽车承运人退出决定因素的计量经济模型。使用从汽车承运人管理信息系统数据库中获得的最新数据,我们发现汽车承运人退出仍然相当普遍。这项研究还发现,汽车运输公司的事故率与退出该行业的可能性呈正相关,而汽车运输公司处理的车队规模和商品细分市场数量与航空公司退出的可能性呈负相关。研究结果还表明,出租承运人更有可能退出,而处理危险材料的承运人退出汽车承运人行业的可能性较小。文章讨论了这些发现,包括对管理和公共政策的影响。

Yoshi Suzuki, Mary Holcomb, David Swanson
We have several announcements to make in this issue. First, Mary Holcomb, Co-Editor-in-Chief of Transportation Journal, has finished her term and will be stepping down soon. Mary served as the Industry Note Editor for three years prior to being appointed as the co-editor of the journal. We very much appreciate her long-time service commitment to this journal. She has made a number of improvements for the journal. During her time as co-editor, the journal’s statistics, including paper submissions and impact factor, have improved considerably. She has done a great job for the journal, and she will be missed by all of the editorial team members. We wish her the best for the next chapter of her career. Second, David Swanson, a faculty member at University of North Florida, will be joining the journal’s editorial team as the new Co-Editorin-Chief, replacing Mary. David is a well-known transportation scholar, and we are delighted to have him join the board. He will be working closely with Mary for the next few months. Third, Carrie Ann Johnson, Assistant Editor of Transportation Journal, will be finishing her two-year term and will be stepping down soon. Carrie Ann has done a great job of assisting the editors for handling papers. After completing her term, she will be concentrating on her Ph.D. program at Iowa State University to finish her degree. We thank Carrie Ann for her help during the last two years, and we wish her the best for her future career. Fourth, Michael Belding, a Ph.D. student in history at Iowa State University, will be joining the editorial team as the new Assistant Editor. Michael will be working closely with Carrie Ann over the next few months to ensure a seamless transition. Michael is expected to serve in this role until summer of 2021. We welcome Michael to the editorial team. Fifth, it is time again to report the acceptance rate of the journal for the calendar year 2018. Our method of calculating the acceptance rate is to simply divide the total number of articles published in the year (2018) by the total number of papers submitted during the year (2018). Submissions of revisions are not counted as separate submissions to produce conservative acceptance rates. Using this method, the acceptance rate of research papers for 2018 was computed as 18.6%, or equivalently, rejection rate of 81.4%. In the past two years, the acceptance rates were 13.2% (2016) and 13.6% (2017), so the journal’s acceptance rate seems to have increased slightly. This is mainly due to the fact that we published a larger number of articles in 2018
这一期我们有几条公告要发布。首先,《交通杂志》(Transportation Journal)联合主编玛丽·霍尔科姆(Mary Holcomb)已经结束任期,即将卸任。在被任命为该杂志的联合编辑之前,玛丽担任了三年的行业注释编辑。我们非常感谢她对本刊的长期服务承诺。她为这本杂志做了许多改进。在她担任联合编辑期间,该杂志的统计数据,包括论文提交和影响因子,有了很大的改善。她为杂志做出了巨大的贡献,所有的编辑团队成员都将怀念她。我们祝愿她在职业生涯的下一个篇章中取得最好的成绩。其次,北佛罗里达大学(University of North Florida)教员戴维•斯旺森(David Swanson)将取代玛丽,加入该杂志的编辑团队,成为新的联合总编辑。David是一位著名的交通学者,我们很高兴他能加入董事会。在接下来的几个月里,他将与玛丽密切合作。第三,《交通杂志》的助理编辑嘉莉·安·约翰逊即将结束她的两年任期,并将很快卸任。嘉莉·安在协助编辑处理稿件方面做得很好。学期结束后,她将专注于爱荷华州立大学的博士课程,以完成她的学位。我们感谢Carrie Ann在过去两年中对我们的帮助,并祝她未来的事业顺利。第四,爱荷华州立大学(Iowa State University)历史学博士生迈克尔·贝尔丁(Michael Belding)将加入编辑团队,担任新的助理编辑。在接下来的几个月里,迈克尔将与嘉莉·安密切合作,以确保无缝过渡。迈克尔预计将担任该职位至2021年夏天。我们欢迎Michael加入我们的编辑团队。第五,是时候再次报告2018日历年期刊的接受率了。我们计算录用率的方法是简单地用该年(2018年)发表的文章总数除以该年(2018年)提交的论文总数。为了产生保守的接受率,提交的修订不被视为单独的提交。采用该方法计算2018年科研论文的被接受率为18.6%,即被拒率为81.4%。近两年的接受率分别为13.2%(2016年)和13.6%(2017年),因此该期刊的接受率似乎略有上升。这主要是由于我们在2018年发表了更多的文章

First, Mary Holcomb, Co-Editor-in-Chief of Transportation Journal, has finished her term and will be stepping down soon. Mary served as the Industry Note Editor for three years prior to being appointed as the co-editor of the journal. We very much appreciate her long-time service commitment to this journal. She has made a number of improvements for the journal. During her time as co-editor, the journal’s statistics, including paper submissions and impact factor, have improved considerably. She has done a great job for the journal, and she will be missed by all of the editorial team members. We wish her the best for the next chapter of her career. Second, David Swanson, a faculty member at University of North Florida, will be joining the journal’s editorial team as the new Co-Editorin-Chief, replacing Mary. David is a well-known transportation scholar, and we are delighted to have him join the board. He will be working closely with Mary for the next few months. Third, Carrie Ann Johnson, Assistant Editor of Transportation Journal, will be finishing her two-year term and will be stepping down soon. Carrie Ann has done a great job of assisting the editors for handling papers. After completing her term, she will be concentrating on her Ph.D. program at Iowa State University to finish her degree. We thank Carrie Ann for her help during the last two years, and we wish her the best for her future career. Fourth, Michael Belding, a Ph.D. student in history at Iowa State University, will be joining the editorial team as the new Assistant Editor. Michael will be working closely with Carrie Ann over the next few months to ensure a seamless transition. Michael is expected to serve in this role until summer of 2021. We welcome Michael to the editorial team. Fifth, it is time again to report the acceptance rate of the journal for the calendar year 2018. Our method of calculating the acceptance rate is to simply divide the total number of articles published in the year (2018) by the total number of papers submitted during the year (2018). Submissions of revisions are not counted as separate submissions to produce conservative acceptance rates. Using this method, the acceptance rate of research papers for 2018 was computed as 18.6%, or equivalently, rejection rate of 81.4%. In the past two years, the acceptance rates were 13.2% (2016) and 13.6% (2017), so the journal’s acceptance rate seems to have increased slightly.

Abstract:Firms are increasingly recognizing that consumers' perceptions of price fairness should be considered when making logistics decisions at the firm level. A key element of price fairness is the shipping charges that consumers pay. This is especially critical with respect to online retail shipping charges as they represent a substantial portion of consumers' total cost and are visible to consumers before they place an order. Perceptions of the fairness of these prices are believed to impact online shoppers' selection of a retailer as well as influence subsequent purchase behavior. While large retailers may be able to leverage scale economies in shipping to offer free shipping on many orders, smaller firms may not be able to offer this to consumers. Thus, the general expectations of consumers are an important competitive factor in the environment, especially for the small and medium enterprises that are employers of 70 percent of US workers. This study assesses the impact of shipping charge fairness upon consumer satisfaction, repurchase, and positive word-of-mouth outcomes for a focal firm. Additionally, the moderating influences of shipping charge magnitude and consumer experience are examined. Consumer perceptions of fairness are found to influence satisfaction as well as willingness to repurchase and make positive referrals.
摘要:企业越来越认识到,在企业层面进行物流决策时,应考虑消费者对价格公平性的看法。价格公平的一个关键因素是消费者支付的运费。这对于在线零售运费尤其重要,因为它们占消费者总成本的很大一部分,并且在消费者下订单之前就可以看到。人们认为,这些价格的公平性会影响在线购物者对零售商的选择,也会影响随后的购买行为。虽然大型零售商可能能够利用运输的规模经济为许多订单提供免费送货服务,但较小的公司可能无法向消费者提供这种服务。因此,消费者的普遍期望是环境中一个重要的竞争因素,特别是对于雇佣了70%美国工人的中小企业来说。本研究评估运费公平对焦点企业消费者满意度、再购买和正面口碑结果的影响。此外,研究了运费大小和消费者体验的调节作用。消费者对公平的认知会影响满意度、再购买意愿和积极推荐。
