This paper describes the simulation study which estimates the container crane efficiency in container terminal. In most simulation studies, it is assumed that container cranes are available at any time. Though the failures of container cranes don't occur often, they are very serious problems on terminal efficiency. As usual, the failures of container crane cause arrived ships to delay the departure time. In this study, a queueing simulation model for container terminal, which focuses on the failures of container cranes, is designed. The simulation approach appears to be the most appropriate one because it allows to avoid the usual exponential assumption on interarrivals of ships and service times of container cranes. Using the developed model, we tested the efficiency of container cranes considering failures with a real system size and performed the simulation experiment on real container terminal to validate the developed simulation model. The results of simulation experiment were analyzed using output statistics, which include the waiting times of vessels and yard tractors, the utilization for container cranes, and the berth occupancy rates.

In this study, we introduce a 3D simulation model to support the design on ACT(Automated Container Terminal) using 3D animation. The developed simulation model simulate virtual operations of ACT and animate the simulated results with real time. We provide several validation points for the design of ACT. And the developed system applied an object-oriented design and C++ programming to increase the reusability and extensibility. We can perform the various simulation experiment and analyze performances to estimate the required number of equipment using developed simulation model.

The Off-Dock Container Yard (ODCY)s in Pusan are located at 48 different places, and it causes serious problems in the container cargo transport and inland traffic near Pusan district. Hence, the analysis and evaluation of ODCY operation is important. Therefore, this paper proposes a simulation model which evaluates the operation of ODCY. It also proposes a simulation model using an object-oriented approach which includes the system is modeled with object-class hierarchy and SIMPLE++, an object-oriented simulation software, is used to develop the model.

In order to cope with the changes of container terminal situation in these days, many simulation studies for container terminal have been accomplished. But previous simulation studies using simulation language have limitations in model representation and difficulties in modeling of large scaled container terminal system. To make these problems better, this paper addresses an object-oriented simulation of container terminal system using a DEVS formalism. The DEVS(Discrete Event System Specification) formalism, developed by Zeigler, supports specification of discrete event system in a hierarchical and modular manner. The formalism provides a mathematical basis for studying discrete event systems with better understood and sounder semantics. In a step of system modeling, a DEVS formalism aims at the exact system modeling that has a basis of semantics and utilizing the object-oriented manner can flexibly cope with the changes of system environment. In this study a model is developed and verified through the simulation of some alternatives.

There were many theoretical studies using mathematical models about a yard storage capacity in a container terminal so far, but a simulation approach is newly popularizing. The reason why the simulation studies about yard storage capacity were a few was that once the most important part in a container terminal was a quay part. However, from the economic crisis year of 1977, the yard storage part in a container terminal became a critical resource because of the shortage of SOC investment resources. Therefore, after discharging or loading even through there was a waiting in the quay part or not, it can be swiftly improved the efficiency of a container terminal if it was handled rapidly or smoothly in a container yard. So the accurate assessment of yard storage capacity in a container terminal was needed. This study planed to assess the operation capability of a container yard via a simulation model. The model included many chatacteristics of three Korean container terminals such as Gamman Hanjin, Uam, and Hutchinson Busan at the period of 1999 to 2000. The 95% percentile was chosen as a criterion for judging of the storage capability by the recommendation of KPC (1998) and JWD (1998). A simulation approach with system dynamics concept considering the multi-directional impacts within the related variables can probavly foresee the future storage capacity of a terminal not just the past.

Currently, most logistics use containers. The construction of new port and high speed medium size container ship for the transportation of merchandise have become very important. The problem of ship stability is also important because of its direct influence on the loss of human life, ships, and merchandise. The stability of a container ship during its operation is not a large problem because it is well considered in the design process. However, the assessment of ship stability during container loading/unloading in port still depends on the expertise of experienced personnel. In this paper, a model based simulation system is introduced, which is able to assess ship stability during container loading/unloading, using ENVISION, a general purpose simulation system.

Recently, the efficient planning and operations of container terminals have become essential problems to develop the evaluation method with operational rules. Container terminals are required to have enough berths and container yards as well as various equipments and facilities, but in reality there are many differences in their resources owing to the circumstances of each terminal. This study introduces a simulation model for evaluating various operation rules for improving the performance of transshipment container terminal operations. This model can analysis various factors (throughputs, utilizations etc) and shows operational alternative considering design factors of transshipment container terminal with the related circumstances.

최근 본선작업의 대기시간을 단축할 수 있는 효율적인 이송장비로 ALV(Automated Lifting Vehicle)가 연구되고 있다. 그러나 ALV와 다른 하역장비의 연계에 대한 구체적인 분석을 수행한 후 동적 요소들을 반영한 연구는 미흡하다. ALV의 수행도는 동적 환경하의 자가하역 작업, 차량간 방해, 가용한 작업 공간의 점유에 크게 좌우된다. 그러므로 ALV 시스템이 도입된 컨테이너 터미널의 생산성을 평가하는 것은 매우 어렵다. 따라서ALV시스템에 적합한 운영 규칙을 갖춘 시뮬레이션 모형으로 개발되어야 한다. 또한 모형은 연계작업과 차량 주행의 특성을 고려해야 한다. 본 연구는 수평형 컨테이너 터미널을 가정하고 하역작업 과정을 분석하고 시뮬레이션 모형에 필요한 주요 운영 규칙을 제시하였다. 그리고 객체지향 시뮬레이션 소프트웨어인 Anylogic을 이용하여 ALV 시스템에 기반한 컨테이너 터미널 시뮬레이션 모형을 개발하였다.
