In order to become a mega hub port, major ports all over the world are making every effort to enhance their productivity through efficiency of internal operation. Accordingly, in order to enhance the competitiveness of a container terminal, an automated container terminal is considered as the best alternative. An automated container terminal is using such automated handling equipment as AGV(Automated Guided Vehicles) and ATC(Automated Transfer Crane). The efficient equipment operation plays a critical role in enhancing the productivity of an automated container terminal. In an automated container terminal, the most important equipments are AGV and ATC. Each block of containers with a vertical layout is generally operating two ATCs. The two ATCs can be crossed or not at each block. In the case of operating crossover ATC, it has an advantage of high flexibility that ATC work is possible at both TP(Transfer Point) of each block. But it has also a disadvantage that the yard has to be operated at a low storage level of containers in the terminal yard. Recently, for automated container terminals, which are being prepared for opening in Korea, they plan to use uncrossed twin ATC in order to make the storage level of their yards high at a low cost. Therefore, studies have to be made in order to increase the efficiency of twin ATC system based on the flexibility that the crossover ATC system has. This research aims to suggest an operation strategy to improve efficiency of twin ATC at each storage block in a yard.

동아시아 경제의 빠른 성장에도 불구하고 일본의 대형 국제항만에서는 화물증가가 둔화되었고, 국제경쟁력 약화로 인하여 기간항로에서 제외되며 일본 국내 화주의 물류불안을 야기해왔다. 이 문제를 극복하기 위해 2004년 이후 '슈퍼중추항만정책'이 실시되었다. 이 정책은 국제항만의 고규격 터미널을 민간기업에 의탁하여 효율적으로 관리, 운영되도록 다양한 정책적 지원을 제공하며, 국제항만의 코스트 절감과 서비스 향상을 달성하겠다는 취지를 가지고 있다. 다양한 법적, 제도적 지원 시책에도 불구하고 슈퍼중추항만정책은 기대했던 정책성과를 달성했다고 보기는 어려운 상황이다. 코스트 경쟁력을 달성하지 못하였뿐 아니라, 화물량 증가 및 환적화물 유치, 기간항로 서비스 유지 측면에서 정책기간 중 소기의 성과를 달성하지 못하였다. 그것은 고규격 터미널의 지정 민간기업의 운영능력, 슈퍼중추항만내의 복수항만의 연계적 효율성, 항만의 집하능력 구축에서 한계점을 가지고 있었기 때문이다. 이에 따라 2010년에는 슈퍼중추항만정책의 후속 정책인 '국제컨테이너 전략항만정책'이 등장하였고, 일본은 국제 거점항만 육성을 위한 마지막 기회를 준비하고 있다. 특히 새로운 정책에서는 부산항 경유 환적화물의 탈환을 명시적으로 내세우고 있어 향후 부산항과 일본의 국제컨테이너 전략항만 간의 화물유치 경쟁이 예상된다.

Traditional traffic forecast has employed regression analysis or time-series analysis based on past trends of explanatory variables. However, not existing but planned port facilities do not have historical data for traffic estimation. Consequently, arbitrary traffic allocation has been subject to researcher's intuition. In this paper, container throughput at New Incheon Outer-South Port will be estimated using stated preference(SP) and sample enumeration methodology on the basis of survey data about the choice behaviors of port users in a theoretical situation. In the SP survey, shippers, freight forwarders and carriers were required to answer a choice between two alternative ports: Busan and Incheon. Although total 27 scenarios of questionnaires were constructed with 3 levels of 3 explanatory variables, each interviewee was asked to answer for just 9 scenarios chosen at random. A binary choice logit model was applied to the survey data. The elasticity of travel time is estimated to be very high, implying that building New Incheon Outer-South Port could be effective in relieving the congestion of the Kyungin corridor. The analysis result shows that increasing service level at Incheon Port would bring in the substantial diversion of container cargo in the Capital region to Incheon Port from Busan Port.

The Port of Busan is currently ranked as the seventh largest container port worldwide in terms of cargo throughput. However, port competition in the Far-East region is fierce. The growth rate of container throughput handled by the port of Busan has recently slowed down. In this study, we analyzed how economic conditions and multiple external shocks could influence cargo throughput and identified potential implications for port business. The aim of this study was to build a model to accurately forecast port throughput using the ARIMA model, which could incorporate external socio-economic shocks, and the VEC model considering causal variables having long-term effects on transshipment cargo. Findings of this study suggest that there are three main areas affecting container throughput in the port of Busan, namely the Russia-Ukraine war, the increased competition for transshipment cargo of Chinese ports, and the weaker growth rate of the Korean economy. Based on the forecast, in order for the Port of the Port of Busan to continue to grow as a logistics hub in Northeast-Asia, policy intervention is necessary to diversify the demand for transshipment cargo and maximize benefits of planned infrastructural investments.

As the size of ships increases, the size and output power of their thrusters also increase. When a large ship berths or unberths, the jet flow produced from its thruster has an adverse effect on the stability of quay walls. In this study, we conducted a numerical analysis to examine the impact of the thruster jet flow of a 30,000 TEU container ship, which is expected to be built in the near future, on the stability of a quay wall. In the numerical simulation, we used the fluid-structure interaction analysis technique of LS-DYNA, which is calculated by the overlapping capability using an arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian formulation and Euler-Lagrange coupling algorithm with an explicit finite element method. As the ship approached the quay wall and the vertical position of the thruster approached the mound of the quay wall, the jet flow directly affected the foot-protection blocks and armor stones. The movement and separation of the foot-protection blocks and armor stones were confirmed in the area affected directly by the thruster jet flow of the container ship. Therefore, the thruster jet flows of ultra-large ships must be considered when planning and designing ports. In addition, the stability of existing port structures must be evaluated.

지금까지 컨테이너 자동화 터미널의 설계 및 운영 모델 개발은 주로 수출입 화물의 양적·하 기능에 특화된 서구 항만을 대상으로 수행되었기 때문에, 부산항처럼 다양한 On-Dock 서비스가 요구되는 컨테이너 항만에서는 자동화 터미널의 도입과 운영에 많은 제약이 따른다. 이에 본 연구의 목적은 부산항을 사례로 현재 컨테이너 물동량 구조와 터미널 내부 운영 특성을 진단하고, 기존 자동화 터미널 운영 모델의 부분적인 변경을 통해 효과적인 공컨테이너 관리와 함께 터미널 운영비용을 절감하는 방안을 제시하는 것이다. 기존 수직 배열 자동화 컨테이너 터미널에 '인터체인지 이송 모델'을 적용하여 시뮬레이션 한 결과, 수정된 운영 모델은 구내 이송장비를 추가로 투입해야 하는 불리함에도 불구하고 기존 운영 모델 대비 최대 22%의 TAT 단축과 함께 연간 터미널 매출의 9.4%에 달하는 운영비용 절감이 가능한 것으로 나타났다.

The development of Korea in the Northeast through trade is not a matter of choice as far as national strategy is concerned, but is an important national policy that is a matter of life or death which will determine the future fate of Korea. This thesis will attempt to arrive at a general, tangible plan for the development of Korea in the Northeast centered around trade by examining the change in naval environment at home and abroad, the given economic situation in the Northeast, and the present state of essential port development in Korea-China-Japan. Its objective will be to provide strategies for the development of Busan port confrontation. For the last ten years, China has been growing at a rapid rate. Since a lot of the volume of naval trade is being transferred from Korea to China, we must do everything we can to improve the service and reduce cost. In addition, Japan also is losing international position. Japan's government and the private industry are trying to make Super Core Ports a prominent feature of their port system. If the Busan port system is to remain competitive, these aspects of the Japanese port system must be kept in mind to prevent trade from going to other ports with more competitive systems.

The container throughput of China, after the joining in the WTO, has begun to increase notably. As a result, China is busy building new ports continuously. In accordance with China's situation Korea promote the development plans of ports and marketing strategy to attract the increasing cargo traffics with China, including transhipment cargoes. To build the competition strategy and the panning port for trading cargoes with China, an analysis on origin/destination is necessary. The cargo volume from/to the particular port(Korea/China) and origin/destination of traffic are important factors in the requirement for the port development. Therefore, in the era that trading with China is rapidly increasing, this study is performed to analyze the port's usage of transporting the cargos and the origin/destination of trading cargoes with china. Also this paper suggests to the competitive strategies of Pyungtaek Port to attract cargoes particularly from/to China.
