The requirement exists to improve the efficiency of the logistic support system used during the amphibious assault and the initial advance base supply. Study of the overall problem of cargo handling in amphibious operations is being conducted with emphasis on over-the-beach aspects. Analysis of the relationships of material handling equipment, transfer vehicles, supply weights, sea and beach conditions and the multitude of other related parameters is being expedited by the use of a computer program (ALMS-Amphibious Logistics Mathematical Simulation). This investigation describes the parametric studies and comparisons made between existing ship-to-shore cargo handling systems and a proposed over-the-beach conveyor. Results of the analysis of physical and operational factors preclude the construction of an assault conveyor system. (Author)
