This study proposes a CNN-BILSTM-AM integrated model that significantly improves the shipbuilding price prediction accuracy and extends the application of machine learning in shipping economics.

Further studies show that HSR complements highways to improve passenger transportation and substitutes conventional trains for transporting passengers.

On the basis of Push-Pull-Mooring (PPM) model and the survey data collected from 1029 shared bike users in China, we find that user's sustainable intention of using shared bike can be influenced by push, pull and mooring factors. Specifically, push (e.g., social norm and government and enterprise regulation) and pull (e.g., moral norm and perceived behavioral control) factors significantly promote sustainable usage intention, while mooring factor (e.g., inertia) significantly inhibit it. Meanwhile, mooring factor also weakens the positive influence of push and pull factor on sustainable usage intention. Furthermore, this research further reveals that there is a disparity between sustainable intention and sustainable behavior of using shared bike and uncovers that the “intention-behavior” discrepancy can be bridged by providing punitive measures. Additionally, this research uncovers that user's gender, age and monthly income do not significantly promote sustainable usage intention and behavior, user's educational level significantly promotes sustainable usage intention while not for sustainable usage behavior, and the frequency of using shared bike significantly promotes both sustainable usage intention and behavior.

A significant portion of global logistics chains relies on maritime transport in the initial phase, followed by road, rail, or river transport in the subsequent continental phase. Road transport, however, is associated with various ecological and operational drawbacks. In contrast, intermodal transport (IT) provides an efficient solution by integrating multiple modes of transportation. The key challenge of IT applications remains the determination of the best combination of transport modes, technologies, and routes. Consequently, this paper aims to identify the most favorable alternative to the intermodal transport chain (ITC) for the import of tires from China to Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H). Since selecting the most favorable alternative to the ITC requires an analysis of conflicting objectives and criteria, the use of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) becomes essential in addressing this challenge. The paper presents a new MCDM model that combines the fuzzy DELPHI analytical hierarchy process (fuzzy DAHP) and the fuzzy Axial-Distance-based Aggregated Measurement (fuzzy ADAM) methods. The applicability and effectiveness of the model were demonstrated and confirmed by a case study. The results indicate that the best variants are those that combine maritime, rail, and road transportation through the Port of Koper (with a ranking value of 0.339) and Rijeka (0.289), followed by the variants that combine maritime and road transportation through the same ports (0.241 and 0.222, respectively).
