Measuring Resilience in Freight Transport During Drought Disruption: A Discrete Event Simulation to Measure the Resilience of Freight Systems During Drought Disruption

The Netherlands was faced with drought disruption within their Inland Waterways (IWT) in the past few years. The drought of 2018 was so severe that the disruption caused economic losses. As the topic of drought disruption is new, little strategies have been developed to reduce the economic loss due drought disruption. One concept has gained...

Simulation model to assess the effective capacity of the wet infrastructure of a port

Port planning is a complex multidisciplinary subject. To fulfill its functions, it is essential that the different elements of a port work together. The full potential of a terminal can only be reached when the wet infrastructure of a port (access channel, inner basins, turning circles) can keep up with the traffic load. From the literature...
