Abstract: |
In
response to the phenomenon that some container terminals are excess capacity
and some others are overloaded because of the imbalance of transportation
development, this paper proposed a 3D simulation model of operation system
for the container terminal apron. First, we study the characteristics of
operation system for container terminal apron. Second, a 3D simulation model
of terminal apron operation is implemented, which includes sub-model of
layout, submodel of setting variables and parameters, sub-model of ship
arriving, sub-model of loading and discharging operation, and sub-model of
horizontal transport and yard operation, as well as sub-model of 3D
animation. Finally, the implemented model is applied in practice to examine
the impact of the time of single operation of the quay crane, the number of
trucks allocated for each working path and the number of yard cranes equipped
for each block on the operation efficiency of terminal apron. And the results
show the proposed simulation model performs well that can provide experience
and reference for exploring terminal apron effectively. |
