From Annual Throughput to Vessel Schedules: A Stochastic Generator for Transshipment Hub Simulation
Simulating container transshipment hubs requires vessel arrivals reflecting cyclical liner schedules and origin-destination (OD) cargo pairing. Existing models relying on Poisson arrivals and aggregate transshipment volumes severely distort waiting-time and yard-occupancy predictions. We propose a three-phase schedule...
