Efficient Inter Terminal Container Transport using Amphibious Vehicles - A Simulation Approach

In the 21st century, maritime landscape is confronted with issues such as congestion and delays due to the ever increasing maritime trade volumes.<br/>This thesis explores the possibility of utilizing the concept of amphibious vehicles as a potential solution to address the issue of congestion and enabling the autonomous container terminal...

A Simio simulation model for the evaluation of Inter Terminal Transport systems at Maasvlakte 1 and 2 in 2030

The Maasvlakte port area in Rotterdam is located in the Netherlands. There are 14 container terminals and empty container depots located within this area, some are existing and some will be built in the near future. At container terminals containers are being transhipped between different modalities. At empty container depots, empty containers...

Inter Terminal Transport System Design Using Conveyor Belts for the Port of Rotterdam

Port of Rotterdam is one of the biggest port infrastructures in the world which plays an important role for Dutch economy. While these container flows are handled by the port’s facilities, some containers require second-tier container services (e.g. repair, custom clearance, storage) which usually they are not provided at all of the facilities...
