Determining fixed Crane Areas in Rail-Rail Transshipment Yards
Rail-rail transshipment yards are an emerging and more e cient alternative to traditional shunting yards. Instead of a time-consuming reshu ing of railcars via shunting hills, in these modern yards, huge gantry cranes tranship containers between di erent freight trains. As multiple cranes process the trains in parallel, it is an important operational task to avoid interferences among cranes. To...
متن کاملDetermining crane areas in intermodal transshipment yards: The yard partition problem
At rail-road transshipment yards, gantry cranes move containers from freight trains to trucks and vice versa. They constitute important entities in today's intermodal transportation systems. Real-world yards are often partitioned into several disjunct crane areas, so that crane interferences during container transshipment are avoided. In practice, the lengths of such crane areas are typically d...
متن کاملScheduling Freight Trains in Rail-Rail Transshipment Yards
Transshipment yards, where gantry cranes allow for an e cient transshipment of containers between di erent freight trains, are important entities in modern railway systems and facilitate the general shift from point-to-point transport to hub-and-spoke railway systems. Modern rail-rail transshipment yards accelerate container handling, so that multiple smaller trains with equal destination can b...
متن کاملHow to Park Freight Trains on Rail-Rail Transshipment Yards: The Train Location Problem
In modern rail-rail transshipment yards huge gantry cranes spanning all railway tracks allow for an e cient transshipment of containers between di erent freight trains. This way, multiple trains loaded with cargo for varying destinations can be consolidated to a reduced number of homogeneous trains, which is an essential requirement of hub-and-spoke railway systems. An important problem during ...
متن کاملOptimal and heuristic algorithms for the multi-location dynamic transshipment problem with fixed transshipment costs
We consider centrally controlled multi-location systems, which coordinate their replenishment strategies through the use of transshipments. In a dynamic deterministic demand environment the problem is characterized by several locations, each of which has known demand for a single product for each period in a given finite horizon. We consider replenishment, transshipment and inventory holding co...
