An approach to port network capacity

Port capacity from a traffic perspective has yet to be defined, but its measurement should allow the assessment of port infrastructures and the identification of their main constraints or bottlenecks. In this paper, we will present a review of link and network capacity definitions for different domains and new definitions for ports are...

Simulating the Port Wet Infrastructure: Review and Assessment

Since the continuous growth of maritime transportation due to containerization, ports play an increasingly important role in the freight transportation chain. In ports, high vessel flows and implicit higher densities increase the relevance of the non-terminal related operations. A few simulation models have been developed in the recent decades...
