This paper aimed to develop a delivery truck scheduling management system using decision tree support decision-making in selecting truck. First-in-first-out (FIFO) and techniques were applied prioritize loading doors for trucks with the use of iterated local search (ILS) recommending route transport goods. Besides, an arrangement can be assigned door that meets specified conditions. The experim...

To examine the relationship of ramp design to truck accident rates, this paper presents an analysis of truck accidents in Washington State, plus a comparison to limited data from Colorado and California. We group freeway truck accidents by ramp type, accident type, and by four conflict areas of each merge or diverge ramp. We then compare these groups on the basis of truck accidents per location...

The paper considers different ways of controlling the braking systems haul trucks. general approaches used in development control for such are described. Methods testing and imitational mathematical models, analysis brake system operation, presented. developed model allow us to analyze behavior under operating modes a truck.

A Bluetooth beacon-based underground navigation system (BBUNS) was developed to identify the optimal haul road in an underground mine, track the locations of dump trucks, and display this information on mobile devices. A three-dimensional (3-D) geographic information system (GIS) database of the haul roads in an underground mine was constructed, and the travel time for each section was calculat...

Oil terminals are widely used to store various liquids and gases. The refinery scheduling problem is one of the most challenging problems in operational research due to the complexity of the refinery scheduling operations and the corresponding process models. In this paper, we present a model by which a decision maker should be able to choose the optimal number of tanks, tank size and truck arr...

Length-based vehicle classification data are important inputs for traffic operation, pavement design, and transportation planning. However, such data are not directly measurable by singleloop detectors, the most widely deployed type of traffic sensor in the existing roadway infrastructure. In this study a Video-based Vehicle Detection and Classification (VVDC) system was developed for truck dat...

The heavy rail he was unloading with the help of others fell on him. striking against the left side of the abdomen and the right thigh. He was picked up unconscious and sent at once to the Civil Hospital, where, ...

A field study designed to reveal the physiological workload on garbage collectors (GC) was conducted in Japan. Three drivers who only operated a garbage truck, three loaders who actually collected as a team, three solo collectors, and one clerical worker, totaling 10 male workers participated in this study. The ambient temperature and the relative humidity, activity intensity, and heart rate we...
