Container transport, an integral part of intercontinental trade, has steadily increased over the past few decades. The productivity of such a system, in part, hinges on the efficient allocation of terminal resources such that the container transit time is minimized. This study provides an analytical framework, which entails efficient scheduling of quay and yard cranes, to minimize the time spen...

The quay crane scheduling problem (QCSP) is a global and all ports around the world seek to solve it, get an acceptable time of unloading containers from vessels or loading therefore reducing docking in terminal. This paper proposes three solutions for QCSP port Tripoli-Lebanon, two exact methods which are mixed integer linear programming dynamic algorithm, obtain optimal solution one heuristic...

This study discusses the development of tactical-level integrated planning at seaport container terminals in an uncertain environment.

Motivated by the call of International Maritime Organization to meet emission targets 2030, this study considers two important practical aspects quay crane scheduling: efficiency and energy consumption. More precisely, we introduce bi-objective scheduling problem where objective is minimize vessel’s completion time crane’s This done formulating a mixed-integer programming model. A branch-and-bo...

As container ports become increasingly important to the global supply chain, a growing number of are improving their competencies by consolidating multiple terminal resources internally. In addition, in context energy conservation and emission reduction, measure competitiveness not only terms size, throughput service level, but also low consumption pollution. Therefore, nonlinear mixed-integer ...
