dc.description.abstractIn this research, we have developed a dry port integrated development scenario for a city port with a port-city conflict problem and evaluated the economic benefits of the integration compared with the 'port-only' development. Discrete event simulation was used for developing intermodal port simulation models with (IPSM-2) and without dry port (IPSM-1). A port development cost model was developed for economic comparison of the scenarios considering the port storage area requirement and traffic predictions in 20-foot equivalent units (TEU). The model results indicated that for the year of 2019, IPSM-2 decreased the port storage area up to 87% and IPSM-2 ($101/TEU) was 47% more economical compared to the IPSM-1 ($191/TEU) considering the handling rate. The study concludes that dry port integration can yield sustainable and more economic port development and can be used for solving port-city conflict for land usage.
