The optimal assignment of berth slots and cranes to shipping services is the central logistics problem at modern marine container terminals and should be formulated to specifically account for its stochastic nature. We use a computational grid to solve a major seaport logistic problem by a simulation optimization approach centred around a queuing network model of the logistic process of interes...

This work introduces a fuzzy optimization model, which solves in an integrated way the berth allocation problem (BAP) and quay crane (QCAP). The is solved for multiple quays, considering vessels’ imprecise arrival times. model optimizes use of quays. BAP + QCAP, NP-hard (Non-deterministic polynomial-time hardness) combinatorial problem, where decision to assign available quays each vessel adds ...

Efficient management of port resources plays a crucial role in reducing vessel stay times and avoiding the payment demurrage charges. In this paper, we focus on integrated Laycan Berth Allocation Quay Crane Assignment Problem, which considers three main decision problems an way: dynamic continuous Problem time-invariant Problem. second part, problem is extended to Specific Assignment, includes ...

This multi-faceted study deals with the analysis of impact noise emissions from cargo terminals in port Split, especially view proximity to inhabited areas and growing number registered issues concerns due its particular location. Three objectives are pursued: identification sources area, an overview strategic maps simulations propagation ships at berth, calculation external costs pollution. In...
