集装箱码头仿真和优化研究进展

当今90%的国际货物要经过海港,并且80%的海上运输货物要用集装箱运输。集装箱码头的设计者和管理者为了节省费用和快速有效地满足集装箱运输的需求,使用了缩短船舶在港停泊时间,高效利用人力、泊位、堆场和装卸设备资源等措施。为了进一步研究集装箱码头系统,通过查阅相关研究文献,总结了集装箱码头仿真和优化研究的主要问题和某些研究的局限性,展望了未来的研究趋势。

Progress in Research on Simulation and Optimization of Container Terminal: an Overview

Today,more than 90% of international cargo is transported through seaports and 80% of sea-borne cargo moves in containers through seaports.Designers and managers of container terminals attempt to reduce costs and to meet the demand for container traffic both effectively and efficiently by shortening the docking time of ships and efficiently using resources,such as human resources,berths, container yards and container handling equipment.From examining the literatures,a classification of the problems is given,which are relative to the simulation and optimization of container terminal logistics system.For further research on container terminal systems,an overview of relevant literatures is presented.Limitations in some researches are pointed out.Finally,general conclusions and tendency of further research are given.
