This study analyzes the dynamic behavior of traffic flow over time by deriving the theoretical value of flow oscillations convergence (F̃) following the breakdown of traffic flow. Modeling traffic flow fluctuations over time reflects two basic zones: the increasing demand zone that terminates...

The marine terminal in general and the container terminal in particular is the physical link between ocean and land modes of transportation. Port capacity is commonly defined as the amount of cargo that can be handled by a port per time period, usually a year. For containers it is the number of...
