Maritime ports are exposed to many disruption sources such as natural disasters, labour strikes and terrorism. Disruptions in port can have a wide range of potential negative impact on its transportation networks; while sometimes also benefit other ports in close proximit...

Analysis of Multi-Robots Transportation with Multi-objective PSO Algorithm in an Artificial Capital Market

In this paper, to analyze the transport of autonomous robots, an artificial Capital market is used. Capital market is considered as a pier which loading and unloading of cargo is done. Autonomous robots load and unload from the ship to the warehouse wharf or vice versa. All the robots have the ability of transporting the loads, but depending on loads and the location of unloading (or loading) a...
