Optimizing container loading and unloading through dual-cycling and dockyard rehandle reduction using a hybrid genetic algorithm

Abstract This paper addresses the NP-hard problem of optimizing container handling at ports by integrating Quay Crane Dual-Cycling (QCDC) and dockyard rehandle minimization. We identify critical inter-dependencies between the unloading sequence of QCDC and the dockyard container...
