1 Ιουλ 2015 · The air-cargo consolidation problem under the pivot-weight scheme (ACPW) is characterized by a pivot weight and two unit costs, respectively, the under-pivot rate and the over-pivot rate. The pivot weight Uj is a weight threshold of a ULD, below which the cargo is charged the under-pivot rate.

1 Ιουλ 2015 · Abstract. In the international air cargo business, freight is usually consolidated into containers, called Unit Load Devices (ULDs). The transportation charge of a ULD depends on whether the total weight exceeds a certain threshold, called the pivot weight.
What is air freight? Air freight/cargo can be defined as all cargo moved by air except for mail and passenger baggage. The two options for air cargo transport are dedicated freighters and belly capacity in passenger aircraft. Air freight accounts for about 1percent of total freight by weight transported worldwide, but some
Simply put, pivot weight refers to the minimum chargeable weight for a specific type of container or Unit Load Device (ULD) used in air cargo. Shipments that fall below the pivot weight for a particular ULD are charged a higher rate per kilogram, known as the under-pivot rate.
18 Φεβ 2023 · The idea behind the concept of air freight was to ship shipments with a higher average weight at a cheaper rate than express shipments by air, but faster than by rail express (Sheehan 1939). 1.5.1 Evolution of Modern Commercial Aircraft
31 Ιουλ 2015 · In this work, we study how an air freight forwarder should plan its cargo loading in order to minimize the total freight cost given a limited number of rented containers.
1 Ιουλ 2015 · The findings from the CSA interview show that in the spot market, airlines reject or accept the orders of freight forwarders on the basis of factors, such as the pivot weight, pivot volume, type, and center of gravity, to maximize the expected profit.
