  • This study was carried out to analyze the effect of wind load on the structural stability of a 50ton articulation type container crane using wind tunnel test and provide a container crane designer with data which can be used in a wind resistance design of an articulation type container crane assuming that a wind load 75m/s wind velocity is applied in an articulation type container crane. Data acquisition conditions for this experiment were established in accordance with the similarity. The scale of an articulation type container crane dimension, wind velocity and time were chosen as 1/200, 1/13.3 and 1/15. And this experiment was implemented in an Eiffel type atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel with $11.52m^2$ cross-section area. Each directional drag and overturning moment coefficients were investigated and uplift forces at each supporting point due to the wind load were analyzed.

  • Background: Cosmic ray-induced particles can lead to failure of semiconductors packaged for export during air transport. This work performed MCNP 6.2 simulations to optimize shielding against neutrons and protons induced by cosmic radiation Methods and materials: The energy spectra of protons and neutrons by incident angle at the flight altitude were determined using atmospheric cuboid model. Various candidates for the shielding materials and the geometry of the Unit Load Device Container were evaluated to determine the conditions that allow optimal shielding at all sides of the container. Results: It was found that neutrons and protons, at the flight altitude, generally travel with a downward trajectory especially for the particles with high energy. This indicated that the largest number of particles struck the top of the container. Furthermore, the simulation results showed that, among the materials tested, borated polyethylene and stainless steel were the most optimal shielding materials. The optimal shielding structure was also determined with the weight limit of the container in consideration. Conclusions: Under the determined optimal shielding conditions, a significantly reduced number of neutrons and protons reach the contents inside the container, which ultimately reduces the possibility of semiconductor failure during air transport.

  • 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.

  • A hypothetical core destructive accident (HCDA) has received widespread attention as one of the most serious accidents in sodium-cooled fast reactors. This study combined recent advantages in numerical methods to realize realistic modeling of the complex fluid-structure interactions during HCDAs in a full-scale sodium-cooled fast reactor. The multi-material arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian method is used to describe the fluid-structure interactions inside the container. Both the structural deformations and plug rises occurring during HCDAs are evaluated. Two levels of expansion energy are considered with two different reactor models. The simulation results show that the container remains intact during an accident with small deformations. The plug on the top of the container rises to an acceptable level after the sealing between the it and its support is destroyed. The methodology established in this study provides a reliable approach for evaluating the safety feature of a container design.

  • In this paper, we propose the possibility of using containers in the HPC ecosystem and the criteria for selecting a proper PMI library. Although demand for container has been growing rapidly in the HPC ecosystem, Docker container which is the most widely used has a potential security problem and is not suitable for the HPC. Therefore, several HPC containers have appeared to solve this problem and the chance of performance differences also emerged. For this reason, we measured the performance difference between each HPC container and Docker container through NAS Parallel Benchmark experiment and checked the effect of the type of PMI library. As a result, the HPC container and the Docker container showed almost the same performance as native, or in some cases, rather better performance was observed. In the result of comparison between PMI libraries showed that PMIx was not superior to PMI-2 in all conditions.

  • Container system automatically controlled in its atmosphere of high CO2/low O2 was devised to contain and store pork belly meat at chilled temperature. The meat in the container system was compared in the quality preservation at 0℃ for 21 days to that in air-filled container and vacuum package. The container atmosphere could be controlled to be of 47~60% CO2 and 7~10% O2 through time-controlled intermittent CO2 injection. The controlled atmosphere in the developed system was effective in suppressing pH change and aerobic bacterial growth contributing to sensory quality preservation. Compared to control of air-filled container, vacuum packaging showed lower microbial growth and slower pH change on the meat but with high drip loss. The devised container system to keep high CO2 and mildly low O2 concentrations is effective in the meat quality preservation on overall, and may be extended to a variety of meat products with possible modification tuned for product requirements.

  • In this paper, we proposed a two-stage control of the container crane. The first stage control is time-optimal control for the purpose of fast trolley traveling. With suitable trolley velocity patterns, the sway which is generated during trolley moving is minimized. At the second stage control feedback control law is investigated for the quick suppression of residual vibration after the trolley motion. For more practical system, the container crane system is modeled as a partial differential equation (PDE) system with flexible cable. The dynamics of the cable is derived as a moving system with tension caused by payload using Hamilton's principle for the systems. A control law based upon the Lyapunov's method is derived. It is revealed that a time-varying control force and a suitable passive damping at the actuator can successfully suppress the transverse vibrations.

  • This paper presents a sensor location decision making method respect to Container-Grown Seedlings in view of precision agriculture (PA) when sensors involved in tree container measure received signal strength (RSS) or time-of-arrival (TOA) between themselves and neighboring sensors. A small fraction of sensors in the container-grown seedlings system have a known location, whereas the remaining locations must be estimated. We derive Rao-Cramer bounds and maximum-likelihood estimators under Gaussian and log-normal models for the TOA and RSS measurements, respectively.

  • The present study developed a model to estimate the light weight of an ultra-large container ship. The weight estimation model utilized container ship data obtained from shipyards and the subdivided this weight data into appropriate weight groups. Parameters potentially affecting the group weight were selected and expanded based on experience for weight estimation, and a correlation analysis was performed by the SPSS program to determine the key parameters characterizing the group weight. A weight estimation model applying the multi-regression analysis was proposed to assess the weight of an ultra-large container ship at the preliminary design stage, and the results obtained by the suggested method showed good agreement with the shipyard data.
