| Popis: | The optimization of seaside operations at container terminals includes solving standard berth and crane allocation problems. The question arises about the efficiency of such optimizations in small and medium-sized container terminals, with different quay designs or different terminal layouts. This paper focuses on developing an integrated model that would apply to medium-sized terminals with a multi-quay layout. The main objectives are determining the shortest possible vessel stay at the port and providing a high-reliability service to ship operators. The developed integrated model includes the optimization process in three stages: initiation, assignment, and adjustment. The model&rsquo s main feature is generating operational scenarios based on the cargo distribution onboard and integrated berth and crane allocation. The aim is to choose the most favorable option to optimize ships&rsquo overall processing time in the planning horizon. The experiment was conducted to test the model&rsquo s functionality and justify the results by comparing the results obtained by the integrated model with the classical approach of berth and crane allocation in a multi-quay environment. The results show significant improvements in peak periods when ships&rsquo arrivals are concentrated in smaller time intervals by applying the integrated model. |
