Quay Cranes and Yard Trucks Scheduling Problem at Container Terminals
A bi-objective mathematical model is developed to simultaneously consider the quay crane and yard truck scheduling problems at container terminals. Main real-world assumptions, such as quay cranes with non-crossing constraints, quay cranes’ safety margins and precedence constraints are considered in this model. This integrated approach leads to better efficiency and productivity at container te...
متن کاملAn Integrated Scheduling Problem of Container Handling Equipment in the Loading Operation at Automated Container Terminals
In automated container terminals, containers are transported between ships and storage yard by differen types of vehicles, for example, guided vehicle (AGV, yard crane (YC) and quay crane (QC). To improve the productivity of the automated container terminals, it is important to harmoniously synchronize operations of different types of container handling equipment. This paper examines the schedu...
متن کاملScheduling Single-Load and Multi-Load AGVs in Container Terminals
In this paper, three solutions for scheduling problem of the Single-Load and Multi-Load Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) in Container Terminals are proposed. The problem is formulated as Constraint Satisfaction and Optimization. When capacity of the vehicles is one container, the problem is a minimum cost flow model. This model is solved by the highest performance Algorithm, i.e. Network Simple...
متن کاملIntegrated Scheduling of Different Types of Handling Equipment at Automated Container Terminals
Effective control and operation of handling equipment in port container terminals are crucial in enhancing the overall efficiency and performance of container handling in import, export and transshipment. Nowadays, more and more container terminals are deploying automated handling equipment to improve the overall productivity. As the equipment is often unmanned and automatically controlled, it ...
متن کاملA Systematic Framework for Implementing Six Sigma in the Landside of Marine Container Terminals
In this research, an accurate optimization model, based on the Six Sigma methodology was used in order to assists marine container terminal operators to minimize trucks congestions. to smooth gate activity and to shorten trucks turn-around times. The main purpose of this paper is to report findings of implementing the Six Sigma in the landside of marine container terminals to reduce the average...
