A comparative analysis of storage and retrieval equipment at a container term…

In designing container terminals one have to consider the choice for a certain type of storage and retrieval equipment by performing a feasibility and economic analysis. In this paper, we compare, by means of a simulation study, the performance of manned straddle carriers and automated stacking cranes. As main performance measure, we use the total travel time required to handle storage and retr…
