Abstract

This chapter deals with the containership stowage problem. It is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization whose goal is to find optimal plans for stowing containers into a containership with low operational costs, subject to a set of structural and operational constraints. In order to optimize a stowage planning, like in the literature, we have developed an approach that decomposes the problem hierarchically. This approach divides the problem into two phases: the first one consists of generating a relaxed initial solution, and the second phase is intended to make this solution feasible. In this chapter, we focus on the first phase of this approach, and a new loading procedure to generate an initial solution is proposed. This procedure produces solutions in short running time, so that, it could be applied to solve real instances.
