  • The required storage inventory is a very important decision variable which determines the storage capacity of a container terminal. Generally, the required storage inventory is dependent upon such factors as ship headway, allowable dwell time of containers, loading/unloading time per ship, and so on. Until now, the required storage inventory is estimated under the assumption that the factors are deterministic in several studies. However, this study proposes how to estimate a required storage inventory satisfying the required service level under the assumption that a containership's load size is probabilistic. Numerical experiments, which use a simulation show that the proposed method can estimate more adequately the maximum storage inventory than other methods under a probabilistic environment.

  • The storage space requirement is a very important decision variable which determines the storage capacity of a container terminal. Generally, the storage space requirement is dependent upon such factors as ship headway, allowable dwell time of containers, loading/winding time per ship, and so on. Until now, the storage space requirement is estimated under the assumption that the factors are deterministic in several studies. However, this study proposes how to estimate a storage space requirement satisfying the required service level under the assumption that a containership's load size is probabilistic.
