The Alabama State Port Authority wants to increase the volume of coal moving through the McDuffie Island Coal Terminal. A perceived barrier to an increase in capcity is the number of tugboats for moving barges throughout the terminal. This paper presents a simulation... by Karen | Jan 1, 2008 | Anthony Holden, Center & Office Research, Dr. Bernard Schroer, Dr. Gregory A.
