Abstract

This paper presents the problem of allocating berth positions for vessels in tidal bulk port terminals (BAPTBI), considering the specific export scenario and robust control over goods’ stock levels. An integer linear mathematical model is proposed for the discrete case (time and quay). The model controls the minimal and maximum inventory levels. A dataset of 59 instances was generated based on data obtained from a relevant bulk terminal in São Luís, Brazil. Through the experiment using the Gurobi solver, it is noticed that some medium-sized instances take more than 1 h to be solved.
