TRANSFER COST PERFORMANCE MODEL

This paper is based on Appendix five of the Harvard University Research Program report "An Analysis of Investment Alternatives in the Colombian Transport System, 1968". This transfer model is designed to simulate intermodal transfer operations. The approach employed is to divide the transfer operation into subparts through mathematical relationships reflecting the costs and service under conditions.
