Simulation Model for Transport Vehicle on Automated Container Terminal

자동화 컨테이너터미널의 이송장비 시뮬레이션 모델

The objective of this study is to develop the simulation model of transport vehicle to analyze the required number of transport vehicle and to design the traffic pattern at automated container terminal. To model the transport vehicle, we defined the vehicle model and the traffic model using the state transition model of transport vehicle. An application of a simulation to simulate an automated container terminal with perpendicular layout is developed and described. From the results of simulation experiment, we obtained the vehicle speed and the number of vehicle under given productivity of container cranes, and analyzed the saving effect by cycle time.
