Simulation Study on RMGC-Design Planning -- 8. Summary and Outlook.The storage yard is the operational and geographical centre of most seaport container terminals. Therefore, it is of particular importance for the whole terminal system and plays a major role for trade and transport flows. One of the latest trends in container-storage operations is the automated Rail-Mounted-Gantry-Crane system, which offers dense stacking, and offers low labour costs. This book investigates in how far the operational performance of container terminals is influenced by the design of these storage systems and to what extent the performance is affected by the terminal's framework conditions, and  discusses the strategies applied for container stacking and crane scheduling. A detailed simulation model is presented to compare the performance effects of alternative storage designs, innovative planning strategies, and other influencing factors. The results have useful implications for future research as well as practical terminal planning and optimisation.Contributions to management science ;1431-1941WarehousesAutomationMaterials handlingWarehousesAutomation.Materials handling.387.164Kemme Nils1065631MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910438085003321Design and Operation of Automated Container Storage Systems2547235UNINA
