해상운송에서 규모의 경제 이익을 달성하기 위해 선박의 크기가 대형화되고, 항만이 중심항만과 주변항만으로 양분화 되어감에 따라 컨테이너 터미널의 효율적 운영을 통한 경쟁력 확보가 중요시되고 있다. 컨테이너의 효율적인 적하는 선박의 효율과 양적하에 직접 관여하는 터미널 중심 장비인 켄트리 크레인의 효율을 극대화하도록 계획되어야 한다. 적하 문제는 선박의 크기와 각 터미널에서의 적하량에 종속되는 NP-hard 문제이다 본 연구에서는 컨테이너 적하 문제를 크게 두 개의 단계로 나누어 적하 계획을 수행한다. 무한한 경우의 수를 두 단계로 나눈 계획 시스템에 의해 크기를 줄인다. 첫 번째 단계는 컨테이너를 선박의 각 해치별로 배치하는 단계이고, 두 번째 단계는 각 해치별로 배정된 컨테이너를 특정 슬롯에 배치하는 것이다. 이렇게 분해된 문제의 각 단계에서 유전 알고리즘(Genetic Algorithm)을 사용하여 최적의 적하계획을 세운다. 그리고 정기 컨테이너선의 운항모형을 수립하고, 각 항구에서의 양·적하를 수행하여 구축된 시스템의 적합성을 시뮬레이션하여 평가한다

지금까지 컨테이너터미널을 계획하면서 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 소요자원의 규모나 생산성 등을 분석하려는 연구는 많이 진행되어왔다. 그렇지만 컨테이너터미널의 구성 요소에 대한 전제 조건이 부족한 경우에 도입 가능한 다양한 컨테이너 취급 시스템과 그에 관련된 배치안 및 운영 알고리즘의 조합으로 구성되는 모든 대안들을 시뮬레이션하여 비교 평가하기 위해서는 많은 비용과 시간이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 상세 분석이 필요한 대상을 선정하기 위해 개발 조건을 고려한 컨테이너터미널의 적정 처리능력, 대안별 시설 규모 및 위치 그리고 하역 장비의 종류 및 운영대수 등을 대략적으로 계획하고 시뮬레이션 분석과 운영정보가 이에 체계적으로 연결되어 효율적인 의사결정을 할 수 있게 정보와 흐름을 통합 관리하는 시스템을 설계하는 것이다. 통합관리시스템은 수행 역할에 따라 프로젝트 관리, 운영정보 관리, 능력계획, 배치계획 그리고 시뮬레이션의 모듈들로 구성된다. 본 논문에서는 각 구성모듈의 기능과 모듈간의 입출력 정보를 정의하였고 시뮬레이션에서 필요한 주요 객체 및 제어 흐름을 설계하기 위해 개체지향방법론의 표준인 UML을 이용하였다.

Marine ttransport is a big part of container transportation. In view of container terminal. the planning technology is very important to secure the stability and regularity at container yard. The purpose of this paper is to suggest more efficient container yard management by evaluating the container yard occupations from the methods of divide that predict the carried containers in gates.

Maritime transport has been occupying the biggest part of the container transportation market. With regard to container terminal management, the planning technology and the space allocation system on the yard are very significant factors to secure the stability of ship and to ensure the reliability of schedules of ship throughout keeping barycenter of vessel by right loading and fast handling of cargoes. The purposes of this paper are to illustrate the existing yard management systems such as Grouping method and Random Grounding method, and then to evaluate and compare the efficiency of yard availability between the existing management system(Grouping method) and Random Grouping which uses the forecasted inbound cargo volume at the gate by Time Base Operation.

This paper is concerned about applying the AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) for a priority analysis of equipment operation plan to improve productivity of the container terminal in Gwangyang port. In this study, main elements of container terminal are assumed as into yard equipment area, transport equipment area, berth equipment area and C/Center area. A questionnaire is used to collect the opinions of equipment operating department and operational planning department. On the whole, the result of the analyses reveals that the most important area is yard equipment area. Examining each department is responses, equipment operating department preferred the C/Center area to other areas, on the other hand, operational planning department preferred yard equipment area. The result of this study suggests some guidelines for deciding priority of operation plan in the container terminal.

At container terminals, a major measurement of productivity can be work-efficiency in quay-side. At the apron, containers are loaded onto the ship and unloaded to apron by Q/C(Quay Crane). For improving the productivity of quay crane, the more efficient Y/T(Yard Tractor) operation method is necessary in container terminals. Between quay-side and yard area, current transferring methods is single-cycling which doesn't start loading unless it finishes unloading. Dual-cycling is a technique that can be used to improve the productivity of quay-side and utility of yard tractor by ship loading and unloading simultaneously. Using the dual-cycling at terminals only necessitates an operational change without purchasing extra equipment. Exactly, Y/T operation method has to be changed the dedicate system to pooling system. This paper presents an efficient ship loading and unloading plan in container terminals, which use the dual-cycling. We propose genetic and tabu search algorithm for this problem.

The purpose of this paper is to describe the design of the decision support system for container terminal ship planning and to introduce the implemented system. The ship planning in container terminals consists of three major decision processes -the working schedule of gantry cranes the discharging sequence of inbound containers the loading position and sequence of outbound containers. For making these decision the proposed system can provide two ship planning modes the interactive planning mode with user-friendly GUI and the automated planning made. To implement the automated planning routine we acquired the planning rules from the expert planner in container terminals and developed an expert system based on the rules. Finally we evaluated the system developed and the potential for commercialization by using container terminal data.

This study shows how the logistics capability of container terminal impacts with service quality and customer response. Result of this study would be utilized in marketing strategy for container terminal. Sample design is based on shipping companies which are registered in Korea Shipowners' Association and Korea Shipmanagers' Association from Dec. 5 through 23 in 2011. And total of 243 questionnaires are collected through a personal visit. The result of empirical analysis, management capability of logistics capability factor which have an effect on service quality and customer response is the biggest influence to them. At the same time, Sympathy of service quality factor which have an effect on customer response is the biggest influence to it. Therefore, customers' requirements would be analyzed specifically when loading and unloading plans are devised in container terminal, and based on customers' requirements, best customer service would be provided.

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.

The rail clamp is the device to prevent that a crane slips along rails due to the wind blast as well as to locate the crane in the set position for loading and unloading containers. The wedge typed rail clamp should be designed to consider the structural stability and the durability because it compresses both rail side with large clamping force by the wedge working as the wind speed increases. In this research, the design of experiments(DOE) and the variation technology(VT) built in ANSYS WORKBENCH are utilized to determine the optimum shape of a jaw. The optimum results obtained by two methods are compared and examined.
