In this work, we address the unrestricted Dynamic Container Relocation Problem (DCRP). The DCRP is an extension of the Container Relocation Problem (CRP) that is NPhard. The CRP aims to empty a single yard-bay, which contains containers with a given retrieval sequence from the yardbay, such that the total number of relocations is minimized. The DCRP extends the CRP so that containers both arriv...

In container terminal operations, the storage yard plays an important role for a terminal’s overall performance because it links the seaside and landside and serves as the buffer area for storing containers. Therefore, storage and stacking logistics has become a field that increasingly attracts attentions in both academic and practical research during the recent years. The purpose of this artic...

This study analyses the concept of cost functions for semi-automated Straddle Carrier (SC), Rubber Tyred Gantry (RTG) and automated Rail Mounted Gantry (RMG) container yard operating cranes. It develops a generic cost based model for a pair-wise comparison, analysis and evaluation of economic efficiency and effectiveness of container yard equipment to be used for decision-making by terminal pla...

The General Yard Allocation Problem (GYAP) is a resource allocation problem faced by the Port of Singapore Authority. Here, space allocation for cargo is minimized for all incoming requests for space required in the yard within time intervals. The GYAP is NP-hard for which we propose several heuristic algorithms, including Tabu Search, Simulated Annealing, Genetic Algorithms and the recently em...

Our purpose is to test the hypothesis that most patients return to unrestricted activity within 4 weeks after knee arthroscopy. METHODS After prospective power analysis, 72 consecutive patients who underwent arthroscopic knee partial medial meniscectomy, partial lateral menisc...
