Internal transport operations connect the seaside, yard side, and landside processes at
container terminals. This paper presents an in-depth overview of transport operations and …

The current decade sees a considerable growth in worldwide container transportation and
with it an indispensable need for optimization. Also the interest in and availability of …

The simulation modelling of shore-and sea-side port operations constitutes a fundamental
prerequisite for effective project planning in port development, as the influence of numerous …

Owing to a rapid growth in world trade and a large increase in the flow of containerized
goods, sea container terminals play a vital role in globe-spanning supply chains. Container …

Container terminals play an important role in the transportation of containerized goods in
global supply chains. The number of containers handled in container terminals has …

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 …

Block widths ranging from two to fifteen rows in a marine container terminal are evaluated by
a fully-integrated, discrete event simulation model. Experiments consider dozens of yard …

This paper presents the results of nine independent studies that link a seaport container
terminal's long-run average quay crane rate to various strategic and tactical decisions made …

The seemingly unlimited growth of containerized transport is nowadays associated with an
increasing number of seaport container terminals and facilities as well as demand for port …

Simulation has been an integral part of research and development work in container
terminal operations. The sheer size of the facilities and the complexity of equipment used …
