Abstract

Abstract: Yard is the central part of the operation process of the whole terminal. In fact, the operation of lots of bulk terminal is unscientific, which severely restricts the turnover efficiency and the throughput of the terminal. Taking the coal terminal as an example and based on its operation process, the dispatching simulation model involving all parts of the operation was established and the rules of use of the yard grids was brought forward. By optimizing the operation strategy and related parameters, it is significant to improve the input quantity of bulk terminal and the turnover efficiency.
