Determinants of port centrality in maritime container transportation (2016)
Journal Article
Wang, Y., & Cullinane, K. (2016). Determinants of port centrality in maritime container transportation. Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review, 95, 326-340. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tre.2016.04.002

This paper adapts Freeman’s measures of degree, closeness and betweenness centrality and applies them to assessing: port centrality in relation to direct connectivity; accessibility to all ports in the network (direct and indirect routes) and; as an...

The Role of Feeder Shipping in Chinese Container Port Development (2014)
Journal Article
Wang, Y., Cullinane, K., & Hu, Y. (2014). The Role of Feeder Shipping in Chinese Container Port Development. Transportation Journal, 53(2), 253-267. https://doi.org/10.5325/transportationj.53.2.0253

The future development of China's container ports has become a critical issue, due to the sector's dependence on international trade and the excessive interport competition that exists both within China itself and with the ports of neighbouring count...

Traffic consolidation in East Asian container ports: a network flow analysis. (2014)
Journal Article
Wang, Y., & Cullinane, K. (2014). Traffic consolidation in East Asian container ports: a network flow analysis. Transportation research. Part A, Policy and practice, 61, 152-163. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tra.2014.01.007

The proliferation of hub-and-spoke operations in maritime container transportation has resulted in the widespread consolidation of traffic flows. Utilising liner shipping network configurations, this paper assesses the impact of freight traffic conso...

Spatial and institutional characteristics of inland port development in China (2013)
Journal Article
Monios, J., & Wang, Y. (2013). Spatial and institutional characteristics of inland port development in China. GeoJournal, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10708-013-9473-2

This paper examines the spatial and institutional characteristics of the emerging trend of inland port development in China. The paper analyses a sample of 18 major inland ports in three geographical clusters, comparing observed issues with similar d...

The hierarchical configuration of the container port industry: an application of multiple linkage analysis (2012)
Journal Article
Cullinane, K., & Wang, Y. (2012). The hierarchical configuration of the container port industry: an application of multiple linkage analysis. Maritime Policy and Management, 39, 169-187. https://doi.org/10.1080/03088839.2011.650719

This paper aims to provide a hierarchical configuration of the container port industry. It attempts to do so by determining a port hierarchy and then, utilising this, deriving the nature of the spatial interactions between sample ports in East Asia....

A capacity-based measure of container port accessibility (2009)
Journal Article
Cullinane, K., & Wang, Y. (2009). A capacity-based measure of container port accessibility. International Journal of Logistics Research and Applications, 12, 103-117. https://doi.org/10.1080/13675560902749340

Exacerbated by a global trend towards greater market concentration in shipping and port operation, competition between container ports has intensified. In evaluating port competitiveness, minimal consideration has been given to the accessibility of i... Read More about A capacity-based measure of container port accessibility.

Measuring container port accessibility: An Application of the Principal Eigenvector Method (PEM) (2008)
Journal Article
Wang, Y., & Cullinane, K. (2008). Measuring container port accessibility: An Application of the Principal Eigenvector Method (PEM). Maritime Economics and Logistics, 10, 75-89. https://doi.org/10.1057/palgrave.mel.9100192

Container port accessibility examines the potential or opportunity for the transportation of containerised cargoes within the global liner shipping network. It is also a particularly relevant aspect of port competitiveness since, as previous studies...
