The increase in practical problems generated by the intensive growth in air transport has necessitated the development of specialised operations research methods and modern computer technology. By combining operational research data from both scientific publications and airline companies, this book, first published in 1988, provides a unique source of information for those working on the development and application of operations research analysis in air transportation. Topics include air transport analysis, flight frequency determination, the scheduling of flights and personnel, and the...

As an important industry, transportation costs account for a considerable percentage of the gross national product of countries. It is therefore key to have at the disposal of those concerned with transportation activities, a bibliographical literature on costs and costing. The bibliography lists books, papers, technical reports, journal articles, and information rarely found in books and dissertations.

This book, first published in 1971, was the first comprehensive study based upon experience gained by operators and users of containers, both inland and for overseas trade. The book is concerned with the technical innovation of container use, the economics of their usage, the influence of government on distribution and transport, and on port development.

Aerospace is a major world industry. This handbook, first published in 1987, provides a world survey of the industry in statistical form. The first part covers production and distribution by sector – airframes (aircraft), aeroengines, avionics, systems, missiles / spacecraft – and by country. It includes a summary for each country of the degree of government intervention, which is a crucial factor as state involvement is essential for the aerospace sector. The second part covers technological change, and here graphical representations of trends in product and process technologies are...
