LMTT (linear motor-based transfer technology) is horizontal transfer system in the maritime container terminal for the port automation. For LMTT system, shuttle cars are used instead of other types of cars. They are running on the routes which are stable on the terminal ground made of steel. The terminal scheduling complexity increases with the need of improving automation. It is necessary to make a good designed performance for the terminal system. This work presents a dispatching role using fuzzy logic for the shuttle cars. It considers the actual status of terminals and takes decisions on real time. A simulation is done to validate the role and two other dispatching rules to be compared.

Linear motor (LM) based shuttle cars will play an important role in the future transportation systems of marine terminals to cope with increasing container flows. These systems are known as agile port terminals because of their significant advantages. However, routing for multiple shuttle cars is still an open issue. We present a network model of a container yard and propose constrained dynamic programming (DP) for its routing strategy with collision avoidance. The algorithm is a modified version of typical DP which is used to find an optimal path for a single traveler. We evaluate the new algorithm through simulation results for three shuttle cars in a mesh-type container yard.

Significant increase of container flows in marine terminals requires more efficient automatic port systems. This paper presents a novel routing and collision avoidance algorithm of linear motor based shuttle cars using dynamic programming (DP). The proposed DP is accomplished online for determining optimal paths for each shuttle car. We apply our algorithm to Agile port terminal in USA.

Significant increase of container flows in the marine terminals requires more efficient port equipments such as logistic and transfer systems. This paper presents collision avoidance and routing approach based on dynamic programming (DP) algorithm for a linear motor based shuttle car which is considered as a new transfer system in the port terminals. Most of routing problems are focused on automatic guided vehicle (AGV) systems, but its solutions are hardly utilized for LM based shuttle cars since both are mechanically different. Our proposed DP is implemented for real-time searching of an optimal path for each shuttle car in the Agile port terminal located at California in USA.
