Computer simulation study International Container Terminal "Tanjung Perak", Surabaya, Indonesia

The Tanjung Perak harbour of the city of Surabaya on the island Java, Indonesia has experienced a considerable growth of container traffic. In order to adequately deal with the expected continuing increase of container traffic in the future, the International container terminal is presently being expanded. In future there will be three...

The use of discrete computer simulation models for harbours in developing countries

In the past usually the queueing theory was used to determine the number of berths and with that the quay length. This analytic method can be applied when it is acceptable to create a very simple model by schematization of the so called real life system. In most cases however it is not possible to schematize to such an extend that the model...

Harborsim, a generally applicable harbour simulation model

Every planning of a port development or design of a new harbour is confronted with the unique physical properties and related problems to be solved. On the other hand every port can be defined as a link in the transport chain involved in the transfer of cargo from one medium of transport to another. Every port and its connected transhipment...

Havensimulatiemodellen

Teneinde te kunnen vaststellen op welke wijze de efficiency van een haven op een bepaald moment is te verbeteren of te kunnen voorspellen welke problemen zullen ontstaan in de toekomst wanneer bijvoorbeeld de verkeersomstandigheden zich wijzigen, is het noodzakelijk effekten te kunnen berekenen van iedere verandering in de randvoorwaarden van...
