The operation time of external trucks in a container terminal is one of port operation key performance
indicators concerned by port operators, external truck operators and related government authorities. With the
traffic big data combined with the operation characteristics of the container terminal, the system dynamics method
is used to build the simulation model of the operation system for external trucks. The simulation results of the
operation time of external trucks are consistent with the actual situation, which provides an effective way to
eliminate the “black box” of the operation time of the external trucks. The model can also be applied in multiple
scenarios by using the traffic big data, and the simulation results can be adopted by the relevant organizations.
