To ensure safety during transport within the intermodal chain, it is important to identify possible dynamic events that could affect cargo. In case of bulk cargo in an ACTS (Abroll-Container-Transport-System) container, dynamics and vehicle vary normal such as braking, steering, evasive maneuver like. this research, we used MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) sensors parameters acceleration...

In order to accommodate the growth in intercontinental container transport, port facilities have to be up-scaled drastically. One of the major challenges is to double the capacity of the marine operation on a container terminal. In this study the model of a quay transport system using automated guided vehicles (AGVs) is integrated with a detailed model of the container stack. The result is a ge...

Container routing determines how to transport containers from their origins to their destinations in a liner shipping network. Container routing needs to be solved a number of times as a subproblem in tactical-level decision planning of liner shipping operations. Container routing is similar to the multi-commodity flow problem. This research proposes a novel hybrid-link-based model that nests t...

This paper presented a genetic algorithm (GA) to solve the container storage problem in the port. This problem is studied with different container types such as regular, open side, open top, tank, empty and refrigerated containers. The objective of this problem is to determine an optimal containers arrangement, which respects customers’ delivery deadlines, reduces the re-handle operations of co...

In order to accommodate the growth in intercontinental container transport, port facilities have to be up-scaled drastically. One of the major challenges is to increase the capacity of the marine operation on a container terminal. In this study the model of a quay transport system using automated guided vehicles (AGVs) is used to deduce logistic principles for the design of a terminal layout an...

The increase in container transport and the restricted capacity of existing port facilities determine a large number of issues, including terminal congestion, delivery delay, and economic loss. This motivates research activities aimed at studying the factors that influence performance and economic profit [1]. Toward this end, one has to rely on a model that represents the reality of container t...
