지금까지의 컨테이너 터미널은 항만 하역작업에 주안점을 두고 운영되어 왔다. 그리하여 크레인 기술 향상, 장치장의 현대화 등 많은 노력을 해왔으나 21세기가 시작된 지금은 컨테이너 터미널 내부에 각각 이루어지던 작업이 통합되어진 형태로의 운영이 필요한 시점에 이르게 되었다. 국내에서 건설하려는 컨테이너 터미널은 지금까지와는 다른 형태로 건설되어야 한다. 현재 컨테이너 터미널 운영 시스템 터미널 내부에서 발생하는 전체를 총괄하지는 못한다. 크레인 모니터링, 게이트모니터링, 작업 상황 등이 모두 다르게 되어 있어서 하역작업에 관한 내용만을 모니터링하는 수준이다. 본 논문에서 서술하고자 하는 통합 모니터링은 컨테이너 터미널 내에서 관제실에서 크레인 운전 정보, 작업 지시, 상황 보고, 게이트 모니터링, 사고 예방, 사고 발생시의 경보 등을 모두 하나로 묶는 문제 파악에서 부터 해결 방안 제시 등, 첨단화된 지능을 갖춘 컨테이너 터미널을 구현하는데 필요로 하는 내용들을 서술하여 그 방법을 제시 하고자 한다.

In Automated Container Terminal, the remarshaling is the task of rearranging containers for the effective exporting operations. Since available time for the remarshaling is usually restricted, all containers cannot be remarshaled. Therefore, this paper proposes a method that selects some containers from all export containers and then establishes the remarshaling plan with only the selected containers. The experimental results using simulation system shows that our proposal planning method that plans after selecting remarshaling containers is better than plans with all loading containers and remarshals during the available time.

According to the increase of container flows and the appearance of large-sized container vessels, the container handling equipment in ports is evolving continuously. This research introduces the simulation model for evaluating in detail the mechanical productivity of container cranes. The model considers a single trolley and dual trolleys as the mechanism of a container crane and a single lift, a twin lift, and a tandem lift as the spreader type of it. Additionally, the detail specifications such as the dimension and the speed of a container crane are inputted and the kinematic characteristics of it are simulated. The model also considers the size of a vessel, the storage position of containers in the vessel, and the weight of containers as external physical constraints. Experimental conditions can be configured conveniently because various parameters in the model are separated. Moreover, the model can accommodate flexibly new equipment types and the changes of the existing equipment because it is designed and developed in object-oriented concept.

Container terminals keenly compete with one another because of the continuous increase of container flows and the appearance of large-sized vessels. Major cargo handling equipment manufacturers are interested in the development of new conceptual equipment to greatly increase its productivity. In this study, a two-phase procedure is suggested for selecting the optimal development alternatives, when various development alternatives for container cranes are given. The first phase removes the alternatives that violate essential requirements and the second phase selects final alternatives by the evaluation of experts and the linear assignment method. Finally, a case applying the procedure is provided.

This paper aims at identifying the effectiveness of the maintenance of container cranes in two typical container terminals in Pusan Port based on the empirical data For this the key performance indicator (KPI) was introduced with some information on world class standard level. Then, an empirical analysis was conducted with respect to the interaction of equipment maintenance KPI such as MMBF, PM, EM, and Breakdown ratio.

Container cranes are vulnerable structure to difficult weather conditions because there is no shielding facility to protect them from high wind This study carried out to analyze the wind load have an effect on container crane according to a wind direction variation The container crane for this research is a model of a 61-ton class tint used broadly in the current ports. The dimension of an external fluid field set up 500m ${\times}$ 200m. In this study, Mean wind load conformed to the 'Design Criteria of Wind Load' in 'Load Criteria of Building Structures' and an external fluid field divided in interval of 10 degrees to analyze effect according to a wind direction From there, we carried out to the computation fluid dynamic analysis using a CFX-10 Therefore as consequence of computation fluid dynamic analysis and wind velocity experiment make a comparative study, we analyzed a wind load for construction design if container crane.

Container cranes are vulnerable structure about difficult weather conditions bemuse there is no shielding facility to protect them from the strong wind. This study was carried out to analyze the wind load which have an effect on container crane according to the various wind direction. The container crane is a model of a 61-ton class that used broadly in the current ports. The external fluid field was figured as a cylinder which was set up $500m{\times}200m$. In this study, we applied mean wind load conformed to 'Design Criteria of Wind Load' in 'Load Criteria of Building Structures' and an external fluid field was divided as interval of 10 degrees to analyze effect according to a wind direction In this conditions, we carried out the computation fluid dynamic analysis using the CFX-10. As we compared computation fluid dynamic analysis with wind tunnel test, we analyzed the wind load which was needed to design the container crane.

The container crane is one of the most important equipment in container terminal. If its working time in cycle could be reduced then container terminal efficiency and service level can be increased. So there are many efforts to reduce working time of container crane. It means how to design the controller with good performance which has small overshoot and swing motion of container crane. We, in this paper, present a state feedback controller not based on LQ theory but RCGA which means real-coded genetic algorithms. RCGA can search state feedback gains in given objective function. several cases of simulations are carried out in order to prove the control effectiveness of the proposed methods.

This study analyzed the fluid state around a container crone according to a wind direction when a wind load was applied to a container crone. The container crane for this research is a model of a 50-ton class used broadly in the current ports. The dimension of an external fluid field set up diameter, 300m, height, 200m. This study considered the change of a wind velocity according to an altitude in a criterion of a wind velocity, 50m/s, applying a power series law. An incident angle applied to an interval of 30 degrees in $0^{\circ}{\sim}180^{\circ}$ and this study carried out a computation fluid dynamics using a CFX-10. In this study, we indicate the wind pressure according to the height and section figure of each member. In addition, we suggest the wind pressure accordint to a wind direction. And we will analyze the structure stability of a container crone from the fluid-ductile analysis in the next study.

Intra-block remarshalling is the task of rearranging into some target bays those containers which are scattered within around the block. If multiple transfer cranes installed in the block are all used together we may be able to complete the remarshalling task as early as possible. However, when multiple cranes are used simultaneously, there may occur significant delays if we do not carefully consider interferences between the cranes at the time of scheduling. Especially, delays caused by interferences occur more frequently in case of using non-crossing cranes. This paper presents an efficient heuristics method for assigning moves of containers to each crane and for determining an appropriate container moving order in a manner sensitive to the interferences. Simulation experiments have shown that the proposed method can effectively reduce delays in various environments.
