  • One of the important performance measure for productivity at container terminals is the working productivity in the quay. working scheduling of quay cranes (QCs) gives a significant impact on the quay working productivity. The recent managers of the terminals pay high interests in equipment investment and operation methods with a new concept in order to enhance the quay working productivity. The double cycle or dual cycle, which is a method to increase the quay productivity with no application of new equipment, but with the change of operations, has been received strong attention in academic research. The majority of studies until this time has been realized the quay work as the bottleneck and focused on those works. However, if the QCs do notver, it the Cs d-trotver,(CT) if t the Cs, there would be the pos ibilf tes that the effectiveness of them is decreasedveaused by the longer, if t the Cs. Thus, this paper, suggests the solutions on the con th scheduling for the dual cycle operation considering the YT.

  • T his paper presents the lateral and longitudinal control algorithm for the driving of a 4WS AGV(Automated Guided Vehicle). The control law to the lateral and longitudinal control of the AGV includes adaptive agin tuning ability, that is the controller gain of the gravity compensated PD controller can be changed on a real-time. The gain tuning law is derived from the Lyapunov direct method using the output error of the reference model and the actual model, And to show the performance of the presented lateral and longitudinal control algorithm, we simulate toe nonlinear AGV equations of the motion by deriving the Newton-Euler Method, The read path is from quay yard area to docking position in loading yard area. The quay yard area is where the quay crane loads the container to the AGV and the docking position is where the container is transferred to the gantry crane. The road types are constructed in a straight line and J-turn. When driving the straight line, the driving velocity is 6㎧ and the J-turn is 3㎧.

  • The amount of international trade is rapidly increasing as a result of globalization. It is well known that as the size of a vessel becomes larger, the transportation cost per container decreases. That is, the economy-of-scale holds even in maritime container transportation. As a result, the sizes of containerships have been steadily increased for reducing transportation costs. In addition, various handling technologies and handling equipment have been introduced to increase the throughput capacities of container terminals. Quay crane (QC) that carries out load/unload operations plays the most important role among various handling equipment in terminals. Two typical examples of advanced QC concepts proposed so far are double trolley QC and supertainer QC. This paper suggests a method of estimating the expected value and the standard deviation of the container handling cycle time of the advanced QCs that involve several handling components which move at the same time. Numerical results obtained by the proposed estimation procedure are compared with those obtained by simulation studies. In order to demonstrate the advantage of advanced QCs, we compared their expected cycle times with those of a conventional QC.

  • Recently, container terminal managers make an experiment on the double cycle and dual cycle operation, which ship loading and unloading were carried out simultaneously, for increasing the productivity of quay side. However, if we make an experiment on dual cycle operation in a real job site, the efficiency is poor up to terminal operation method as YTs(Yard Tractors)' allocation method, QCs(Quay Cranes)' working speed, and position of export containers. So, this paper examine more efficient terminal operation method, when terminal uses dual cycle operation.

  • 컨테이너 터미널에서의 생산성은 본선작업의 효율성과 밀접한 관련이 있다. 효율적인 본선작업을 위한 첫 번째 단계는 선석에서 컨테이너를 취급하는 장비인 안벽크레인(Quay Crane : QC)에 대하여 효율적인 작업일정계획을 수립하는 것이다. 일반적으로 안벽크레인의 작업일정계획은 선박내의 장치계획에 관한 정보와 장치장의 장치현황정보등 많은 정보를 활용해야 하며, 선박의 안정성과 크레인의 작업용이성 등 다양한 제약사항을 고려하여야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 인공지능기법 중 최적에 가까운 해를 찾아주는 탐색기법인 GRASP(Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure)를 적용하여 실제 현장에서 적용 가능한 안벽크레인 작업일정계획기법을 제안하였다. 또한, 컨테이너 터미널의 실제 자료를 수집하여 제안된 메타휴리스틱 알고리즘의 성능을 분석하였다.

  • A yard in a container terminal is a temporary storage space before containers are loaded onto the target vessel or delivered to consignees. For improving the utilization of the space in the yard and the efficiency of loading and discharging operations, it is important that operation plans must be carefully constructed in advance. A heuristic method is suggested to solve operation space planning problems considering workloads on handling equipment as well as space availabilities. The operation plans in this paper includes quay crane (QC) schedules and space plans for multiple vessels considering the workload in the container yard of container terminals. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of a space planning method and the performance of a new QC scheduling method using a simulation model.

  • In an automated container terminal, various factors affect the operation of container handling equipment such as quay cranes and AGVs, and thus calculating the exact operation time is nearly infeasible. This uncertainty makes it difficult to dispatch AGVs well. In this paper, we propose a simulation-based AGV dispatching algorithm When dispatching an AGV to an operation, the proposed algorithm conducts multiple stochastic simulation for the succeeding AGV operations for the predetermined period to collect stochastic samples of the result of the dispatching. In the stochastic simulation, the uncertainty of crane operations is represented as a simple probability distribution and the operation time of a crane is determined according to this. A dispatching option is evaluated by the total delay time of quay cranes which is estimated by averaging the quay crane delay of each simulation In order to collect a sufficient number of samples that guarantee the credibility of the evaluation, we devised a high-speed simulator that simulates AGV operation The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is validated by simulation experiments.

  • Recently, a container shipping volume has increased dramatically and continued on a trend of rapid growth, and so the number of container handled at the port increase. therefore, it's increasing about concern of harbor automatism to save distribution costs in harbor. harbor automatism classifies into four large automatism's, gate automatism by using RFID that trailer come with burdening the container to be loaded on ships go though with RFID and Quay-Side container crane automatism that treats cargos loading on ships and automatism of CG that loads containers from yard, and automatism of container transporters that carries containers in between gates. To increase the using efficiency of harbor, detecting exact location of yard crane is very important matter. In this paper, propose about yard crane automatism applied UWB Location system and the development direction.
