movement of goods. We introduce a case study of a retail company in the UK that ships containers from China to its warehouses … the containers. Based on the analysis of this data, we show that there is a considerable chance that recorded volumes on …

inner container temperature are simulated and respectively calculated according to the actual transport route of the … container by usage of a climatic data model. The paper presents first results of the analysis, which are used to optimize the …

Horizontal transport on container terminals represents the interface between quay and yard. Efficient transport …

Truck appointment systems (TAS) are a well-recognized method to smooth the peaks in truck arrivals at seaport container … influence of different drayage patterns on the success of a TAS at seaport container terminals by means of a discrete event … simulation model. These drayage patterns vary in the percentages of transports between container terminals and container …

Purpose: While simulation-based optimization has been discussed in theory and practically employed at container … gaps are identified. Methodology: The recent literature of simulation-based optimization on container terminals is examined … using a mapping review approach. Emphasis is laid on the covered problems, chosen meta-heuristics, and the shapes of the …

Purpose: Truck appointment systems (TAS) are a reliable method for seaport container terminals to reduce peaks in truck …
