Data and results for “An integrated optimization model for diversified dry bulk export terminals with conveyor constraints and multiple work calendars”
Description
This dataset contains the input data and detailed computational results associated with the three case studies presented in the article “An integrated optimization model for diversified dry bulk export terminals with conveyor constraints and multiple work calendars”. The first two case studies concern the integrated port management model. Case Study 1 illustrates the proposed extensions, including multiple work calendars, conveyor operations, flexible maintenance scheduling and detailed loading constraints, using an efficiency-based objective. Case Study 2 examines the impact of replacing this economic efficiency criterion with an effectiveness-based objective that minimizes vessel dwell time. The third case study concerns the complementary batch location and availability model, which determines the storage locations and availability dates of make-to-stock batches before these data are transferred to the port management model. The case studies draw on benchmark and real industrial data related to dry bulk operations at the Jorf Lasfar industrial port in Morocco. The Excel workbook is organized into six worksheets. DATA_CASE 1 & 2 contains the input data shared by the first two case studies. Result_CASE1_Efficiency reports the detailed results of Case Study 1. Result_CASE 2_Efficiency and Result_CASE 2_Effectiveness provide the solutions used to compare the two optimization criteria in Case Study 2. Data_CASE 3 contains the input data for the batch location and availability model, while Result_CASE 3 reports its detailed optimization results. The result worksheets also provide the information required to examine the resulting schedules and verify compliance with the main temporal and operational constraints.
