Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to substantiate the effectiveness of the selection of options for the placement of racks and aisles in covered warehouses for single-piece cargo. As part of the study, the storage capacities were determined, considering the peculiarities of storage and movement of such goods. To achieve this goal, an algorithm was proposed for selecting the effective placement of aisles and racks in the warehouse. This algorithm considers various factors, such as warehouse capacity, interaction with various modes of transport and reduction of downtime of vehicles waiting for loading and unloading operations at these warehouses. The practical significance of this research lies in the fact that its results make it possible to improve the interaction of various modes of transport through the warehouse, increase the capacity of warehouses and reduce downtime of vehicles waiting to perform operations in these warehouses. This helps to reduce time costs, increase the efficiency and efficiency of warehouses, as well as improve the overall logistics chain of transportation of packaged goods.
