Freight Transport Modelling is a unique new reference book that provides insight into the state-of-the-art of freight modelling. Focusing on models used to support public transport policy analysis, Freight Transport Modelling systematically introduces the latest freight transport modelling approaches and describes the main methods and techniques used to arrive at operational models.

As freight transport has grown exponentially in recent decades, policymakers now need to include freight flows in quantitative evaluations of transport systems. Whereas early freight modelling practice was inspired by passenger transport models, by now it has developed its separate stream of methods and techniques inspired by disciplines such as economic geography and supply chain management.

Besides summarizing the latest achievements in fundamental research, this book describes the state of practice and advises practitioners on how to cope with typical challenges such as limitations in data availability.

Lori Tavasszy (1967) is full professor in Freight & Logistics Systems at Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands. He has been with the Dutch national research institute TNO between 1996 and 2016, with several university assignments since 2004. He has published widely about freight transport modelling research topics, including the Elsevier textbook Modelling Freight Transport. Prof. Tavasszy is active in several US Transportation Research Board committees and chairs the scientific committee of the World Conference on Transport Research Society (WCTRS). He has developed innovation roadmaps on freight corridors, the physical internet and zero-emission logistics within the European Technology Platform ALICE and on freight transport modelling with the Dutch Road and Waterways Authority Rijkswaterstaat
