This article intends to examine main features of revision in relation to the duration of cover in the Institute Cargo Clauses 2009 and the results of analysis are as followings. First, the cover, which had been "warehouse to warehouse", has been extended to what may be called "shelf to unloading". Thus the insurance attaches when the goods are first moved within the warehouse or place of storage at the named place for the purpose of immediate loading for the commencement of transit. Secondly, the new termination Clause 8.1.3 requires an election by the assured, or their employees, to use a vehicle or container, for storage other than in the ordinary course of transit. Thirdly, Clause 10.1, which deals with the assured's voluntary change of voyage, was amended to solve the problem that the words "held covered" could be misunderstood by an assured without specialist knowledge of English marine insurance law to be a guarantee of cover, even where cover would not be commercially available. Finally, Clause 10.2 is designed to solve the so-called "phantom ship problem", arising from the harsh decision in The Prestrioka. The new Clause 10.2 provides protection for an innocent assured in the situation of a phantom ship.

A membrane type LNG cargo tank is equipped with a pump tower and a liquid dome for loading and unloading of LNG. However, the membrane running continuously on the tank wall to prevent leakage of LNG is interrupted by the liquid dome, hence care should be taken in the design of liquid dome and its substructures. In case of GTT NO96 membrane type cargo containment system, chair structure is arranged along the periphery of the liquid dome targeting to support the membrane which is exposed to the both hull girder and thermal load. This paper proposes a new and simple chair structure, which outperforms traditional design from productivity point of view maintaining same level of structural safety. Strength assessment on the new design was performed to guarantee the structural safety of the new design, which includes strength, fatigue and crack propagation analysis.

Sloshing loads, produced by the violent liquid free-surface motions inside the cargo tank have become an important design parameter in ship building industry since there have been demands for the increased sizes of the cargo containment system of LNG carriers. In this study, sloshing impact pressure acting on the shell of the spherical cargo tank of an LNG carrier as well as dynamic pressure and flow behavior around the pump tower located at the center of the tank have been calculated. Comparative numerical sloshing simulations for a spherical LNG tank using 2-D LR.FLUIDS which is based on the finite difference method and 3-D MSC.DYTRAN which is capable of calculating nonlinear fluid-structure interaction have been carried out. A method of calculating sloshing-induced dynamic loads and the subsequent structural strength analysis for pump tower of a spherical LNG carrier using MSC. DYTRAN and MSC.NASTRAN have been presented.

Companies are reluctant to disclose information because of trade secret and corporate identity For the same reasons, logistics companies do not want to operate in the form of a community In urban areas, the loading of vehicles is 100% as the quantity of goods transported is too much. In mountain areas, however, the load condition of the vehicle is not 100% because of the low quantity of goods transported Therefore, the transportation costs will increase as the cost of transport increase, the competitiveness of firms will also decline In this paper, we studied a simulation to measure driving time and volume of cargo according to the change of the quantity of goods transported in the mountain area According to the research results, we got a conclusion that the proposed method makes the operation time be less and the volume of cargo increase compared with the existing operation method.

The objective of this paper is to suggest a decision support system allowing automatic loading and discharging planning for tanker ships, and provide a working prototype. Particular attention is placed on developing a feasible system for improving the speed and accuracy of cargo planning by combining practice and theoretical solution methods. The system is consisted of a simulation model for tank allocation and an expert system for working sequence. Several program tests are undertaken with randomly generated input data. The results suggest that the system is quite meaningful even though there are still some problems to be solved. The paper concludes with a discussion of issues for future development of the decision support system.

The forklift carry cargo and move to various places. When a forklift moves to various places, a forklift accident occurs due to a number of factors,such as speed, safe distance. Forklift accidents occur at the logistic site and there are many studies on the causes of accident such as jamming, falling, collisions, etc. However, safety operation for accident prevention is necessary before operating a forklift. Pre-accident safety precautions may prevent accidents. In this study, precautionary factors for safe operation were analyzed to prevent forklift safety accidents through the AHP technique. As a result of the study showed that safety management was the priority in the terminal group and the logistics warehouse group.

Generally, the cargo tank of LPG carriers corresponds to an independent tank Type A defined by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). The outside of the tank is insulated by polyurethane foam, and the tank is made of expensive low temperature steel that can withstand temperatures as low as -50℃. The cargo tank is composed of outer shell plates, bulkheads, stiffeners, web frames, and stringers. Among them, the outer shell plates, bulkheads, and stiffeners can be designed without structural analysis by the Classification Rules and are constructed easily through optimal design. On the other hand, optimal design, including numerous structural analysis, is not performed because web frames and stringers should be designed and approved through structural analysis. Only adequate design, which determines the design dimensions through several dozen structural analysis, is performed. In this study, for finite element analysis, eight loading conditions were applied, and the deformation of the entire ship for each loading condition was considered. The minimum weight design was performed for the web frames of cargo tanks in the 82,000 ㎥ LNG carrier through the gradient-based optimization technique, and the weight was reduced by approximately 108 tons per ship.

As basic study on effects of the decasualization of port labor, this paper watched labor supply framework reorganization, focused on port worker in Incheon port at before decasualization(2005~2007.9) and after decasualization(2007.10~2010.5) and analyzed disposal quantity, workers, workdays, productivity, accident and disaster data that was apt to influence by the decasualization of port labor. Though commercial traffic of Incheon port was decreased in global economic depression, individual workday per month after decasualization compared with before decasualization is decreased by 3.3days from 22.7day to 19.4days, on the other hand, indivisual annual loading and unloading throughput is increased averagely 71.6%, and labour productivity, when 2005 labour productivity are 100, are increased by 67%. After decasualization, overall loading and unloading productivity is improved. But, according to loading and unloading, the number of accident and disaster are increase by 11.7% after decasualization for loading and unloading operation.

Knapsack problems represent many business application such as cargo loading, project selection, and capital budgeting. In this research we developed a knapsack problem solver based on Martello-Toth algorithm using a relational database management system on the PC platform. The solver used the menu-driven user interface. The solver can be easily integrated with the database of decision support system because the solver can access the database to retrieve the data for the model and to store the result directly.
