Description
The cryomagnet transportation into the LHC tunnel is scheduled to take place from March 2004 to August 2006. At this time the installation of all other LHC equipment will be taking place. To know whether it is possible to transport approximately 1750 cryomagnets to their specific position in the LHC tunnel without interfering with installation activities, a discrete-event simulation has been performed. Such a simulation is required to demonstrate the feasibility of cryomagnet transportation within the time frame, available resources and other boundary conditions.
