Effect of block length and yard crane deployment systems on overall performance at a seaport container transshipment terminal
Keywords: Container terminal Maritime shipping Block length Yard crane deployment Simulation Terminal design Gross crane rate As more and more container terminals open up all over the world, terminal operators are discovering that they must increase quay crane work rates in order to remain competitive. In this paper we present a simulation study that shows how a terminal's long-run average quay...
متن کاملThe Quay Crane Deployment Problem at a Maritime Container Terminal
Container unloading/loading at marine container terminals (MCTs) is a key logistic process, to which some research efforts have been addressed by using mathematical programming models formulated in a deterministic-static environment. Vice versa, DES models in a stochastic-dynamic environment are well capable of representing the entire process. Hence, simulation results to be an effective planni...
متن کاملIntegrated internal truck, yard crane and quay crane scheduling in a container terminal considering energy consumption
Container terminals mainly include three types of handling equipment, i.e., quay cranes (QCs), internal trucks (ITs) and yard cranes (YCs). Due to high cost of the handling equipment, container terminals can hardly purchase additional handling equipment. Therefore, the reasonable scheduling of these handling equipment, especially coordinated scheduling of the three types of handling equipment, ...

متن کاملTransshipment of containers at a container terminal: An overview
At container terminals, containers are transshipped from one mode of transportation to another. Within a terminal different types of material handling equipment are used to transship containers from ships to barges, trucks and trains and vice versa. Over the past decades, ships have strongly increased in size, up to 8000 TEU (Twenty feet equivalent unit container). In order to use these big shi...
