For the analysed transport chain, tree variants have been taken into consideration: variant I – without using systems for monitoring location, variant II – container transportation with using systems for monitoring location, variant III – container transportation with using location monitoring and cargo parameters. The conducted tests made it possible to confirm the benefits of implementing this type of system, especially for high-value goods. In the article, a simulation for 50,000 cases of container transportation was done. The simulation and cost analysis has shown that it is possible to reduce the cost of risk significantly.}, doi = {10.4467/2353737XCT.17.220.7763}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/czasopismo-techniczne/article/the-cost-of-risk-evaluation-in-intermodal-transport-variant-analysis} }
