SYSTEMATIC ANALYSIS OF FACTORS INFLUENCING THE EFFICIENCY OF MULTIMODAL TRANSPORT

Abstract

The transport policy of many developed countries is based on the development and implementation of multimodal transport systems. They are an effective means of solving urgent problems of social development, globalisation of internal and external relations between states. The wide coverage of the problems of functioning and developing multimodal transport systems by the world scientific community shows that multimodal transport systems are currently considered as one of the means of solving the most pressing problems of the economy, transport, mobility, etc.

The authors have analysed existing research and found that there are no holistic approaches to analysing, designing, planning and managing different types of multimodal transport systems. The direct application of mathematical methods alone is insufficient and inefficient for such large technical systems as multimodal transport systems (MMTS). The reason for this is the uncertainty of a large number of factors and situations. Therefore, this paper uses the logical foundations of systems analysis. This has allowed the authors to gain a much deeper understanding of the nature of multimodal transport systems, their structure, organisation, tasks, regularities of functioning, optimal ways of development and management methods. The most important factors influencing the efficiency of international multimodal transport were identified using the method of expert evaluation. The content of the most influential factors identified by the experts was systematised. The systematic procedure allowed analysing possible alternative methods and means of achieving the goals, identifying effective solutions for improving the efficiency of MMTS, identifying the largest possible number of organisational and subjective factors affecting the object of study and considering how they affect each other.
