In this study, the focus is on the issue of whether a container terminal is facing the limitation of its productivity for serving mega-vessels with numerous containers. In order to enhance the terminal operations, a new conceptual design of the container handling system have been proposed. This research focuses on the rail-based container transport system and its operations. This system consists of rail-based shuttle cranes and rail-based transporters called flatcars. The deadlock problem for managing automated transporters in container terminals has been an important issue for a long measurement of time. Therefore, this study defines the deadlock situation and proposes its avoidance rules at the rail-based container transport system, which is required to handle numerous container throughput operations. The deadlock in the rail-based container transport system is classified into two parts: deadlock between cranes and flatcars; deadlock between flatcars. We developed the simulation model for use with characterizing and analyzing the rail-based container transport system. By running the simulation, we derived possible deadlock situations, and propose the several deadlock avoidance algorithms to provide results for these identified situations. In the simulation experiments, the performances of the deadlock avoidance algorithms are compared according to the frequency of deadlocks as noted in the simulations.

본 논문에서는 선박의 평블록을 조립하는 공장의 월/주간 일정계획을 수립하는 과정에서 계획의 정도를 향상시키기 위해 시뮬레이션을 적용하는 방안에 대해 다루고 있다. 조선 평블록 조립의 일정계획 수립은 표준 데이터를 근간으로 계획을 수립하므로 일정계획의 정도가 낮을 수 있다. 그리고 공장의 제반 여건 및 운영 방안을 일반적인 일정계획 기법에 반영하여 정도가 높은 일정계획을 수립하는 것은 매우 어려운 일이다. 하지만 시뮬레이션에서는 공장의 제반 여건을 상세하게 묘사 가능하고, 시뮬레이션 수행 후 해당 일정계획의 정도 및 여러 사항에 대해 많은 정보를 얻을 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 수립된 일정계획에 대해 시뮬레이션을 통해 평가하고, 해당 일정계획의 문제점을 사전에 발견하여 조치함으로써 일정계획의 정도를 한층 높이고자 한다.

The maritime cognitive radio networks (MCRNs) provide the high throughput with a low communication cost because the secondary ships opportunistically access to unused licensed bands of primary ships. In the ground cognitive radio networks, the busy and idle state of a primary user during a frame is not nearly changed because the state of the primary user are slowly changed. However, the state of the primary ship in the MCRNs may be frequently changed in the frame. Therefore, this paper evaluates the throughput of a primary ship and secondary ships in the MCRNs taking the state change of a primary ship into consideration when the fusion center uses the cooperative spectrum sensing. The simulation results show that trade-off between the throughput of a primary ship and that of secondary ships according to the system parameter such as the cooperative spectrum sensing scheme, the number of secondary ships, and the target detection probability.

A rapid increase of data amount, used in ship-to-ship transmission of safety and logistics information, ships in the inland sea have trouble transmitting real-time information transmission due to an increase in traffic load caused by data transmitted by land station and offshore ships. In this study, therefore, communication is carried out by adaptively controlling the detailed beam width based on the distribution of offshore ships in land station durable in marine environment. Then after the adaptive sector system enabling real-time communication support between ships concentrated in an inland sea and land station is applied, the performance verification is conducted based on the respective Call Blocking Rates of an omnidirectional antenna, fisted sector system, and adaptive sector system. The performance verification result shows that adaptive sector system has better performance than the fixed sector system as the density of ship, q value, increases, and that the smaller the beam width is, the better performance of adaptive sector system will be.

The ventilation system of the engine room of a ship is generally installed to supply the combustion air necessary for the internal combustion engine and to remove the heat source generated in the engine room, and it must satisfy the international standard (ISO 8861) for the design conditions and calculation standards for the ventilation of the ship engine room. The response delay of the ventilation system including the fire detector is affected by the airflow formed inside the area and the location of the fire detector. In this study, to improve the initial fire detection response speed of a fire detector installed on a fishing vessel and to maintain the sensitivity of the installed detector, the smoke behavior was simulated using the air flow field inside the engine room, the amount of combustion air in the internal combustion engine, and the internal pressure of the engine room as variables. Analysis of the simulation results showed that reducing the flow rate in the air flow field and increasing the vortex by reducing the internal pressure of the engine room and installing a smoke curtain would accelerate the rise of the ceiling of the smoke component and improve the smoke detector response speed and ventilation system.

This research designed Waste Heat Recovery System(WHRS) generation system of 250kW whose working fluid is R-245fa and studied on cycle characteristics by superheater organization. It simulated two conditions; series connection and parallel connection between superheater and evaporator. In simulation of series connection of superheater and evaporator, output of 4.7% could be improved because of the increase of enthalpy by overheating of working fluid. When setting 250kW for target output, cycle flux could be reduced by 4.1%. When setting 250kW as a target output of cycle In parallel connection simulation of superheater and evaporator, cycle flux was reduced as flux of heat source fluid for superheater was increased. So, the maximum 7.9% of working fluid pump's electric power was reduced and there was no big change in cycle efficiency and net efficiency by flux ratio.

System grounding is applied to the neutral point of a power source to secure the from any abnormal voltage and/or grounding fault. System grounding, which is applied mainly in ships is an ungrounded and resistance grounded system. Vessels using the MV power system with 3.3kV, 6.6kV, and 11kV mainly adopt a high resistance grounding system among the resistance grounding systems. The ground fault accounts for 95% of all faults occurring in the electrical system and when a fault occurs, the line-to-ground voltage of the power system is increased excessively, which adversely affects the onboard insulation system. This study analyzed the variation characteristics of the line-to-ground voltage neutral point according to the degree of ground fault in a resistance ground system applied in vessels. For this purpose, the characteristics of the grounding system were first explained, and the modeling of the neutral point potential of the line-to-ground voltage of the resistance grounding system in the vessels was derived. Finally, this study examined how the line-to-ground voltage, line voltage, and neutral point change according to various variable environments through MATLAB simulations.

A virtual vessel traffic control system is introduced to contribute to prevent a marine accident, e.g. ship collision or stranding. from happening. The system that comes from VTS limitaions, consists of both data acquisition by satellite remote sensing and a simulation of traffic environment stress (here, INOUE model used) based on the satellite data. Remotely sensed data cab be used to provide timely and detailed information about the marine safety, including the location, speed and direction of ships, and help us operate vessels safely and efficiently. If in the future, e.g. 5-minute after, environmental stress values that a ship may encounter on a voyage can be available, proper actions can be taken to prevent accidents. It lastly can be shown that JERS satellite data are used to track ships and extract their information.

This study contributes to deepening understand of the characteristics of fishing vessel rolling motions to improve the development of capsizing alarm systems. A time domain rolling motion simulation was performed. In order to verify capsizing alarm systems, it is necessary to carry out experiments assuming a capsizing situation and perform actual fishing vessel measurements, but these tasks are impossible due to the danger of such a situation. However, in many capsizing accidents, a close connection with rolling motion was found. Accordingly, the rolling motion of a fishing boat, which is the core of a fishing vessel capsizing alarm system, has been accurately measured and a time domain based on a rolling motion simulation has been performed. This information was used to verify the algorithm for a capsizing alarm system. Firstly, the characteristics of rolling motion were measured through a motion experiment. For small vessels such as fishing vessels, it was difficult to interpret viscosity due to analytical methods including CFD and potential codes. Therefore, an experiment was carried out focusing on rolling motion and a rolling mode RAO was derived.

This paper describes tagline PD control for reduction of motion for the heavy cargo(load) suspended by a floating crane. The equations of motion are set up considering the 6-degree-of-freedom floating crane and the 6-degree-of-freedom load based on multi-body system dynamics. The tagline mechanism is applied to floating crane to control motion of the heavy cargo(load). The winch, mounted on the deck of floating crane, is used to control the tension of tagline. To generate control force, PD control algorithm is applied. Numerical simulation and experiment is executed to verify the tagline control mechanism. The numerical simulation and experiment shows that the tagline control mechanism reduces the motion of the load suspended by a floating crane.
