How it works

Each truck is a small discrete-event agent, not a decoration: it hauls loaded from the shovel to the crusher, joins a FIFO queue if every dumping bay is busy, dumps for a fixed service time, then hauls back empty to the shovel and repeats. Trucks never overtake, so a slow bay backs up the whole line exactly like a real haul road.

ω = (v / Lloop) · 2π           angular rate on the ring
load time = payload / shovelRate
dump time = fixed service time
queue wait = time from arrival to bay assignment (measured, not assumed)
P_roll = Crr · m_avg · g · v
P_aero = k · v³
energy/t = (P_roll + P_aero) · (Lloop / v) / payload

Predictive dispatch opens a second bay at both the shovel and the crusher (better-coordinated arrivals in practice), which is the single biggest lever on queue time — toggle it off to watch trucks visibly stack up.

Fleet output — tonnes actually dumped in the last simulated 30 minutes, divided by that window: a measured throughput, not a formula.
Queue time — average wait of the last 20 trucks to enter service at either bay.
Energy use — rolling resistance + aerodynamic drag per tonne hauled, from the current speed and payload.
Bay utilization — the fraction of available bay-time actually spent dumping or loading.
