Essay About Maritime Goods

In the modern Transport of goods, the movement of material flow around the world is more complicated. There are various modes of transportation that can be chosen to support this process. One of the most accessible to be implemented is a maritime goods transportation mode. The Maritime goods transportation plays a major role in the national and international trade and economic growth. It has so many elements which have a tight relationship that mutually affect each other. A sustainable Improvements are required on the each element to achieve an appropriate system of the maritime goods transportation that is able to be competitive in the modern market.
According to Rodridgue, et al.(2009), ports become the most critical component because it is the points between two domains of freight or sometimes passenger; the land and maritime domains.

The first chapter will present the current situation in the maritime goods transportation, especially operation handling in dry bulk port terminal. Due to a complexity of maritime goods transportation, the topic of the study will be limited, so that the studies are only focusing on main topics. The objectives and limitations of this thesis are described in chapter 1.2 and 1.3.
In chapter 2, concepts from expertise, which are relevant to the topic of this thesis, are going to be presented to support the next chapter in this thesis. Fist, the fundamental of dry bulk port terminal is necessary to be explained to know the characteristic and the parameters that can be affected to operational handling in dry bulk port terminal. The behaviours of the system of dry bulk terminal are going to be analyzed with system dynamic method, so the principle of system dynamic also will be explained in this chapter. The validation and policy scenario theory are the last things that explained in chapter
