-
Aalok Kumar
Abstract
The concept of green and sustainable freight transport practices is evolving rapidly and attracted the attention of academic researchers and transport practitioners. This chapter provides a review of green and sustainable freight transport practices measure for providing a better understanding of evolving research fields. The literature review considered 20 years of research data for analyzing the research pattern. This chapter uses bibliometric and network analysis for analyzing the scientific mapping of green and sustainable freight transport practices. The chapter also analyzes the most influencing research articles of the field, top contributing authors, organizations, and key research areas related to the field. The most explored research clusters are presented along with future research directions.
