Multi-level fleet size optimization for containers handling using double-cycling strategy

作者:

Highlights:

• Optimization of fleet size combination in containers terminal is presented.

• The optimization minimizes both vessel turnaround time and handling cost.

• A new double-cycling handling strategy is incorporated in the optimization process.

• The new strategy saved 20% in both time and cost and increased productivity by 25%
