Autonomous mobile robots (AMR) are currently being introduced in many intralogistics
operations, like manufacturing, warehousing, cross-docks, terminals, and hospitals. Their …

Port terminals play a critical role in the context of world trade since they are the main nodes
responsible for connecting sea and land transportation. There are several optimization …

Improving container ports' operational efficiency to reduce the delays at ports concerns
global port operators significantly. Optimizing the tactical level allocation of quay side and …

In this paper, a Decision Support System (DSS) with digital twinning-based resilience
analysis is proposed as a modern tool for port resilience computation and updating. The …

The efficiency of automated container terminals primarily depends on the automated guided
vehicle (AGV) scheduling scheme. This paper investigates the AGV dispatching and routing …

To improve the operating efficiency of container terminals, we investigate a closed-loop
scheduling method in an autonomous inter-terminal system that employs unmanned …

Abstract Automated Container Terminals (ACTs) have attracted an increasing number of
researchers over the last decade, compared to conventional terminals, because of their …

Many distribution centers use expensive, conveyor-based sorting systems that require large
buildings to house them. In areas with tight space, robotic sorting systems offer a new type of …

As a traditional way for transporting containerized cargoes, international liner shipping has
long played a dominant role in the China-Europe freight transportation market. In recent …

Due to more and more awareness of environmental conservancy and sustainable
development, automated container terminals (ACTs) have gained increasing attention and …
