Title: Container Truck Simulation of Ship Handling and Transportation in Container Terminal
Abstract: In this paper through taking a large container terminal in China as a case,a simulation model of ship handling and transportation is built by using Witness simulation software,in which a transportation road network from the front berth to the container yard is included.Through running the model,the effect of the quantity and the speed of the container trucks are analyzed on the ship handling time.For the sake of efficient operation,the quantity of the trucks should be configured dynamically according to the different period of handling,and a higher speed of the trucks does not necessarily result in a faster handling efficiency.
