Solving instances with Xxxxxxxx and barges Sample Clauses

Solving instances with Xxxxxxxx and barges. ‌ Problem Case 2 with 39 orders which has been previously solved with traditional bulk vessels is again being solved using tugboats and barges. From this, an assessment can be made on the fleet size and the completion day for the last order. Tugboats are highly manoeuvrable vessels by pulling barges or moving ships. The idea of using tugboats and barges is to save the waiting time from unloading to improve the utilization. As mentioned before, bulk vessels have to wait until all products are unloaded, before they can leave the customer port to production site to pick up another order. At an unloading rate of 400 tons per hour, it will take approximately 5 hours to unload an order quantity of 2000 tons. Within these five hours, the tugboat can leave from the customer port right away after dropping the barge since it does not need to wait for the unloading activity. In practice, the speed of tugboats is higher than bulk vessels. The speed is 12 miles per hour if the tugboat is pulling a loaded barge; 15 miles per hour if pulling an empty barge and 17 miles per hour when travelling without a barge. Increasing the order quantity gives the tugboat more time which can be used in carrying out other activities. From the small example in Section 3.6.1, a tugboat can handle up to two barges sufficiently. Exploiting the fleet size using tugboats and barges from this concept can be approached with a tugboat / barge ratio of 2:1. Hence, three tugboats would work with six barges. 6.6.1 Minimum fleet size for Cluster 1‌ In this case, there are 39 orders in week 24. Based on the tugboat / barge ratio, the problem is initially solved with three tugboats and six barges. And the capacities chosen for the barges were 2000 and 2500 based on the order quantities. Three barges each for the capacities chosen. Run 1 Table 6.13(a) shows the operation of the barges as they are used in serving orders. Day 1 is seen to be utilised more with each barge serve two orders. Not many orders are served in the remaining days by each barge as the orders are spread over all the barges. The last order in this initial solution is completed on day 6.
