摘要
This study develops a high-fidelity simulation model for the vessel traffic in the Strait of Istanbul using the Arena simulation tool. The simulation model is developed mainly for risk analysis and mitigation purposes. In addition, it is utilised to perform scenario analysis to investigate the effect of various system variables such as arrival frequency, number of pilots and number of tugboats on the system performance. The model incorporates an algorithm to schedule vessel entrances to the Strait using the decisions made by the Vessel Traffic Services Authorities. In this regard, the Strait Traffic Rules and Regulations, transit vessel profiles along with local traffic and other vessels, pilotage and tugboat services, meteorological and geographical conditions are all considered in the model to provide a tool to analyse the effectiveness of various current and future policies and decisions regarding management of traffic, risks and vessel delays in the Strait of Istanbul.
