It will be capable of handling the forecasted increase in container movement over the next decade while decreasing the demand placed on existing intermodal facilities in Chicago and northwest Indiana. Several intermediate goals must be met in order to accomplish this objective, which include:  Selecting the site and planning the physical layout of the Gary yard which maximizes efficiency and minimizes any negative effects on the surrounding areas,  Making recommendations concerning the appropriate number, size, and type of cranes capable of handling the predicted capacity, and  Developing a demonstration of software capable of tracking containers and trucks both within the yard and regionally Submitted by Ariel True (atrue@iit.edu) on 2011-04-05T17:13:55Z No. of bitstreams: 8 license_rdf: 22564 bytes, checksum: ff373f1ad387898ef8ba4f8bc9e37073 (MD5) license_text: 20904 bytes, checksum: e09bf99e64678e4285abf3ef3e05412d (MD5) Advanced Shipping Container Transport IPRO 307 Project Plan Sp07.pdf: 330542 bytes, checksum: 3acbb0b5221c721b84a58fec75cddccf (MD5) Advanced Shipping Container Transport IPRO 307 Poster Sp07.pdf: 10090116 bytes, checksum: 81a44c00a84a70aea30023b7ceddb767 (MD5) Advanced Shipping Container Transport IPRO 307 Midterm Report Sp07.pdf: 233812 bytes, checksum: fbffa629fc7d2e31fac0c2e6a05bae3c (MD5) Advanced Shipping Container Transport IPRO 307 IPRO Day Presentation Sp07.pdf: 1511063 bytes, checksum: 98a740845d06e0704cd233166ce5eb33 (MD5) Advanced Shipping Container Transport IPRO 307 Final Report Sp07.pdf: 1606180 bytes, checksum: 248bc05063ffe058cfca56ed3a3a8ef9 (MD5) Advanced Shipping Container Transport IPRO 307 Brochure Sp07.pdf: 459491 bytes, checksum: f39250cb58f43c02e577c64c349c2208 (MD5) Made available in DSpace on 2011-04-05T17:13:55Z (GMT).
