| Summary: | Increase in the number of the population will increase the number of the trading for the goods throughout the world. As the number of ships arrived at the port was increased, there will be the problem that leads to the port congestion. It will increase the possibilities of the ship to get involved in the accident, such as collision, grounding or other possible accident that will cause the huge fatallity. The investment in the shipping industry is very huge and it will affect not only the business, but it also will contribute to the environmental pollution. The understanding of the ship traffic movement at the port area using vessel traffic simulation will help in avoiding the accident occur and the data from the vessel traffic simulation also can be applied for the future port development. Vessel traffic simulation was developed using the MATLAB software where the outcome of this simulation is to determine the ship traffic, and the port utilization as well as the capacity of the port facilities. |
