Extensions of the model "Integrated laycan and berth allocation problem with ship stability and conveyor routing constraints in bulk ports"

Abstract

This paper proposes significant extensions to the model presented in the paper "Integrated Laycan and Berth Allocation Problem with Ship Stability and Conveyor Routing Constraints in Bulk Ports" recently published in Computers & Industrial Engineering, mainly by considering multiple calendars of non-working periods that prevent the performance of certain tasks, complicating the scheduling of tasks and the respect of tidal constraints. A significant adaptation of this first model is proposed and tested in this paper
