New analytical methods are required for effectively planning and operating emerging technologies including the Internet of Things (IoT), Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), and Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book provides a comprehensive study of modelling and evaluation approaches to urban freight transport. It includes case studies from Japan, the US, Europe, and Australia that illustrate the experiences of cities that have already implemented city logistics, including analytical methods that address the complex issues associated with adopting advanced technologies such as autonomous vehicles and drones in urban freight transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso considered are future directions in urban freight analytics, including hyperconnected city logistics based on the Physical Internet (PI), digital twins, gamification, and emerging technologies such as connected and autonomous vehicles in urban areas. An integrated modelling platform is described that considers multiple stakeholders or agents, including emerging organisations such as PI companies and entities such as crowd-shippers as well as traditional stakeholders such as shippers, receivers, carriers, administrators, and residents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresents procedures for evaluating city logistics technologies and policy measures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides an overview of advanced modelling approaches, including agent-based model and machine learning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighlights the essential features of optimisation and simulation models applied to city logistics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses how models incorporating more uncertainty and dynamic data can be used to improve the sustainability and resilience of urban freight systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is ideal for graduate students in civil and environmental engineering and logistics management, urban planners, transport engineers, and logistics specialists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40973794017377,"sku":"9781032199368","price":106.61,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_27547551.jpg?v=1760345602","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781032199368-urban-freight-analytics","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
