Due to the variety of technical equipments and terminal layouts, research has produced a
multitude of optimization models for seaside operations planning in container terminals. To …

In seaport container terminals, berth allocation, quay crane assignment, and quay crane
scheduling problems are solved sequentially. However, this sequential way of planning the …

Container terminals in seaports constitute interfaces between sea and land transport of
goods in global transport chains. These logistics facilities face an increasing demand of …

This paper addresses an effective approach to solve the issue of berth allocation and quay
crane assignment in a multi-user container terminal. First of all, the studied coupling problem …

In container terminals, the integrated planning of berth allocation and quay crane
assignment problems has attracted much attention in literature. These problems can be …

The main contribution of this paper is to quantify the impact of the allocation of facilities,
including the number of facilities and the fuels adopted by facilities, on carbon emissions. In …

This paper puts forward an integrated optimisation model that combines three distinct
problems, namely berth allocation, quay crane assignment, and quay crane scheduling that …

Integrated models of the quay crane assignment problem (QCAP) and the quay crane
scheduling problem (QCSP) exist. However, they have shortcomings in that some do not …

The planning decisions related to the assignment of quay cranes and internal trucks to the
berthed vessels in container terminals are typically made independently. However, a more …

This paper studies the assignment of quay cranes to the berthed vessels and the
assignment of internal trucks to each quay crane at container terminals. Previous studies …
