To graduate, I wrote a thesis at Uturn where I applied the acquired skills from my education to a challenge on the platform. For my thesis, I researched the concept of reusing containers on Uturn\u2019s platform. To reuse a container (also called triangulation), one can execute an export shipment directly after an import without visiting a container depot in between the shipments. The challenge of the research is to choose the triangulations such that the efficiency over the entire time frame on the platform is increased as much as possible.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-92f5589 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"92f5589\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-973a00a ot-flex-column-vertical\" data-id=\"973a00a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ace3cd elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6ace3cd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">The Research<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d34de25 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d34de25\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>To optimize the chosen triangulations on the platform, a quantitative method is designed where we collect and analyze data.
