AGV or Lift-AGV? Performance trade-offs and design insights for container terminals with robotized transport vehicle technology
Kumawat, Govind Lal; Roy, Debjit (IISE Transactions, 2020-08-13)New container terminals are embracing robotized transport vehicles such as lift-automated guided vehicles (LAGVs) and automated guided vehicles (AGVs) to enhance the terminal throughput capacity. Although LAGVs have a high ... -
A new solution approach for multi-stage semi-open queuing networks: an application in shuttle-based compact storage systems
Kumawat, Govind Lal; Roy, Debjit (Computers & Operations Research, 2020-08-20)Multi-stage semi-open queuing networks (SOQNs) are widely used to analyze the performance of multi-stage manufacturing systems and automated warehousing systems. While there are several methods available for solving ... -
Stochastic modeling of parallel process flows in intra-logistics systems: applications in container terminals and compact storage systems
Kumawat, Govind Lal; Roy, Debjit; Koster, René De; Adan, Ivo (European Journal of Operational Research, 2020-08-08)Many intra-logistics systems, such as automated container terminals, distribution warehouses, and cross-docks, observe parallel process flows, which involve simultaneous (parallel) operations of independent resources while ...
