Collaborative Scheduling of External Container Trucks and Yard Cranes for Resilient Port Operations

Abstract

This paper develops a collaborative scheduling optimization model for external container trucks and yard cranes under partial information availability, minimizing relocation cost, crane movement cost, and truck waiting cost to improve resilient port operations.

Highlights

Partial information appointment scenario
Improved particle swarm optimization (RCHGLBPSO)
Multi-scale experiments and sensitivity analysis
Operational resilience under uncertain arrivals
