Air transport in The Conditions of The Slovak Republic

This contribution deals with the analysis of the air transport position in the Slovak Republic. It characterises the crucial elements of the aviation infrastructure and main entities of the transportation system of air transport. The paper describes real performances in the area of passenger air transport and freight air transport in the Slovak Republic. It presents the basic tendencies of further air transport development in the Slovak Republic

Supply chain risk management

The contribution deals with the theoretical tasks of importance and characteristics of logistics chains. It describes the need of participants integration and importance of process management in logistics chains. It includes the specifications of supply chain in an automobile industry. The paper deals with basic risks in supply chain and with the reason of risk management needing in an enterprise. It indicates some basic tasks of common principles of risk management and its implementation into the conditions of supply chain management

LOGISTIC SUPPORT FOR SOLVING CRISIS PHENOMENA IN THE SLOVAK REPUBLIC

The solution of both the military and non-military phenomena requires a massive logistic support. It is impossible to cope successfully with any loss and to minimise the damages and losses without sufficient material and technical provision of the emergency and security units and the affected citizens as well. The history proves that the preparation for solving the crisis phenomena was neglected and the logistic support of the emergency activities was insufficient

Implementing Risk Management Principles in the Traffic and Transportation Processes

The paper is based on the basic safety and security factors of the traffic and transportation systems. It identifies the main groups and types of risks in traffic based on the particularities of the traffic and transportation systems. In general it characterizes the scope of the individual risk management phases in traffic conditions. It specifies successive steps of risk management and forms of their outputs in transport enterprise

Transport Infrastructure of Slovakia and its Protection

The state and prospects of the transport infrastructure development of the Slovak Republic (SR) in the context of legal standards of the European Union (EU). The ownership and administration of the transport infrastructure. The vulnerability of objects and elements of the transport infrastructure. Implementing the risk management in the area of the critical infrastructure in the transport secto

RISK MANAGEMENT IN LOGISTIC ENTERPRISE

ABSTRACTThis contribution deals with the conceptual approach to the management of the enterprises which create conditions for rationalisation and improvement of the business activities not only in the logistic enterprises. In addition to marketing, logistics, quality management and information the companies are increasingly implementing the risk management. The importance of the risk management is to influence the creative process resulting in detecting the risks and a purposeful reduction of the probability of the crises.The first part of the contribution shows the structure of the companies whose business activities are focused on the area of logistics. In the second part relationships between the risk management and other business processes that form together an integrated system of the enterprise management are characterised

Emergency Evacuation Route Choice Based on Improved Ant Colony Algorithm

 In order to explore the optimal route choice for emergency evacuation in the campus, we propose a novel route choice method based on brittle characteristics of campus system and improved ant colony algorithm. Both optimal and worst-case emergency evacuation routes are simulated in the campus of Ningbo University of Technology. From the simulation, the length of optimal and worse-case evacuation routes between the starting point and eight exits can be obtained by adjusting the importance value of trip distance and the degree of conformity, under the condition of static relative importance of pheromone concentration to graph G. The optimal route of emergency evacuation in the campus can be obtained when the importance of trip distance is above 5 and the degree of conformity is above 0.3; while the worse-case route is obtained with the importance of trip distance above 5 and the degree of conformity below 0.5
