# Comparison of the Relative Importance of Factors Affecting the Conveyance of Bulk and Liquid Cargo
## 1 Introduction  
The development and efficacy of transport firms heavily relies on their investment strategy, which is significantly influenced by external factors such as the direct and indirect investment environment [1]. The effectiveness of an entity is enhanced through its association with overarching strategies such as marketing [2], market analysis [3], financial planning, and advertising [4]. The cargo transportation sector holds a prominent position within this strategic framework [5]. One important factor is the calculation of the upper limit of acceptable duration for transporting perishable cargoes via road transport, which is done with a specific focus on the influence of external variables on the heat transfer coefficient and temperature differential. Increased vehicle velocities have been observed to significantly decrease the duration of delivery, hence reducing delivery time [6]. On the other hand, the occurrence of an external heat source results in an increase in the transfer ofheat, which subsequently affects the timeliness of deliveries [7]. The objective is to develop formal models and methodologies for efficiently managing cargo turnover in rail transport, with a special emphasis on maintaining stability in the presence of unpredictable factors. [8]. Additionally, it suggests the incorporation of risk assessment methodologies to facilitate the implementation of these models and methods [9]. The a multi-agent system (MAS)-based distributed control architecture and hierarchical controller for connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) effectively manage complex traffic scenarios. The upper layer considers potential states and transition rules, while the lower layer includes motion controllers, utilizing the Pareto-optimal method for safety and stability [10]. Bulk cargo refers to a substantial quantity of uniform or multiple small segments possessing similar attributes that cannot be transported individually [11]. The defining attribute of these loads is their composition, which are comprised of desiccated particles and fragments of diverse dimensions. These loads exhibit characteristics such as natural degradation, moisture content, and hardness. Bulk cargo, such as ore, coal, grain, soy, salt, and fertilizer, is commonly carried in substantial numbers without the need for individual packaging. An analysis of data pertaining to tank trucks carrying dangerous liquid products, with the aim of enhancing their inherent safety measures, was presented in [12]. This paper proposes a framework consisting of eight components that have a significant impact on the occurrence of accidents, with a specific emphasis on the inherent safety features of vehicles. The construction of critical safety information and the establishment of a vehicle safety risk evaluation model are accomplished through the utilization of the matter-element extension model. The model is implemented in practical applications. The delivery of bulk materials via road vehicles has distinct characteristics that necessitate a high level of responsibility and thorough preparation [13]. The movement of bulk freight must not present any potential hazards to fellow road users, the surrounding environment, or the existing infrastructure. The process of loading bulk cargo involves the utilization of a crane or a conveyor system to facilitate the transfer of goods from an elevated position. In order to provide optimal distribution, dry bulk cargo within the cargo compartment should be positioned in a manner that promotes evenness across the entire floor area [14]. Specifically, the center of the cargo should align with the longitudinal line of the axis of symmetry. Nets employed for the purpose of securing or providing support to specific categories of bulk cargo can be fabricated using woven straps or ropes composed of either natural or synthetic fibers. Band nets are commonly employed as partitions to segregate the cargo area into distinct compartments.
