Yayın A combined algorithm for placement of rectangular vehicles in a ferry(Işık Üniversitesi, 2013-06-14) Paşalı, Büşra; Aksezer, Sezgin Çağlar; Işık Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Endüstri Mühendisliği - Yöneylem Araştırması Yüksek Lisans ProgramıManagement of inland maritime transportation is an important task since it has a costly operation environment, as well as public service responsibility with safety and speed concerns. A typical operation involves multiple ferryboats, assigned to transport both passengers and vehicles between two stationary points. Effective management of resources (ferries, crew, fuel etc.) to meet the increasing demand has become the primary objective of planners working in this area. This research focuses on an uninvestigated part of the general problem: Finding the ideal layout of vehicles on ferryboats. Optimal placement initiative will remedy both the trip utilization rate and financial indicators of the organization. However, an optimal solution is usually not available due to complicated nature of the problem, such as sequencing and embarking restrictions. Here, a heuristic approach is proposed in order to find the best solution by abiding the restrictions of vehicle placement algorithm. The proposed procedure seeks the best position of a given sized (or categorized) vehicle inside a ferryboat under first come first served sequencing rule restriction. The problem at hand may be thought as a sub-echelon of the well-known knapsack and bin-packing algorithms, and benefits from both philosophies in the proposed algorithm. Economical and operational effects of the proposed procedure were illustrated by comparing its application on a real ferry line data gathered from the Sirkeci-Harem route operating in the city of Istanbul.
