Abstract

The paper describes an approach to constructing a simulation model of a temporary storage warehouse (TSW) within a transport-logistics complex. The model is implemented in the AnyLogic environment using a discrete-event approach and is intended to assess the throughput and operational efficiency of the TSW under various parameters (goods flow, level of automation, number of resources). The architecture of the model and its main blocks are presented, together with details of their interactions. Special attention is paid to the integration of several AnyLogic libraries (process simulation, road and rail transport, AS/RS storage), the use of embedded Java code to control process logic (goods generation, waiting for full train loading, etc.), and to selected simplifications (for example, omission of minor AS/ RS operations).
Practical techniques for configuring the model (use of probability distributions, conditional transitions, conveyor logic) are demonstrated to ensure that the methodology is reproducible by other researchers. The simulation confirmed that even partial automation (AS/RS) substantially improves warehouse performance. The proposed solutions and recommendations can be applied when developing simulation models of similar logistics facilities.

Abstract

The article describes a technology for reducing the downtime of a transit car with processing in order to optimize the station’s operation and increase its processing capacity. This technology allows for the technological optimization of the station’s operation without the use of additional resources by reducing the accumulation time of cars in the marshalling yard.

Abstract

This study presents a discrete-event simulation model of a ground-level station on Metro Line No. 1 Ben Thanh – Suoi Tien (using Thao Dien station as a case study). Experiments and analysis of the station’s operational organization were conducted based on the classification of Level of Service (LOS) and key performance indicators. The study also provides recommendations for further development of simulation modeling applications in the organization of Vietnam’s metro systems.

Abstract

This article presents a study on the functioning of a transportation system using simulation modeling tools. A set of measures aimed at developing the passenger transport and logistics system is formulated through discrete-event simulation modeling. An analysis of the transport and logistics infrastructure of the “Dmitrov” railway station complex is provided. Experiments are conducted using the developed model to assess the effectiveness and outcomes of the proposed measures.

Abstract

It is worth noting that the transportation of building materials has been and remains to this day the circulatory system of the construction industry. Its relevance is increasing in the context of largescale infrastructure development and the implementation of national projects in Russia. Considering all the complexities of the external environment from regulatory to logistical, caused by the restructuring of chains, the industry, despite everything, demonstrates adaptability. An important step for the effective future of organizations involves the use of investments in competent logistics, i.e. investments in the successful and timely completion of any construction project. In order to implement such logistics, it is worth paying special attention to such aspects as the type of material transported, the type of transport used, transportation rules and how the transportation plan for the construction project is formed, as well as building the optimal route with reliable partners.
Currently, there is a change in the geography of transportation in the road transport sector, in particular the construction of highways. There is a tendency for market differentiation, implying the presence of small carriers, as well as large logistics companies. Many factors influence pricing, on the one hand the market becomes more flexible, on the other hand it is opaque.
As a result of considering the construction of the transport sector, attention is paid to the transportation of bulk cargo, in particular crushed stone. When studying this topic, it is important to analyze the trend in the development of crushed stone production not only on the scale of one country, but also in comparison with others.
