Container crane is main equipment in container terminals and it determines the productivity and the efficiency of container terminals. The typical type of container cranes has the single trolley and one among advanced types of them has the dual trolley. The objective of this paper is to analyze the buffer size of a container crane with the dual trolley in container terminals. We present a simulation model for analysing the buffer space of a container crane with the dual trolley. The buffer space is located between main trolley in sea-side and second trolley in yard-side. We performs various simulation experiments and analyze the buffer size to estimate the required productivity.

This paper presents the operational planning systems of automated container terminals. The proposed system is composed of berth allocation module, yard planning module, resource allocation module, sequencing module, and simulation module. All the sub-modules except resource allocation module are built into integrated simulation model using simulation package AutoMod. Simulation experiments are performed according to the number of AGVs and AGV allocation policies.

This paper deals with the case study that determines the best operating system of a container terminal using computer simulation techniques. For the simulation, SIMAN simulation language is used. The simulation model developed circumvents the dimensional restrictions imposed by the SIMAN package. Non-terminating simulation experiments are conducted for the 90 days' work on the basis of operation practices of real terminals.

The forecasting of container cargo volumes should be estimated correctly because it has a key roles on the establishment of port development planning, and the decision of port operating system. Container cargo volumes have a dynamic characteristics which was changed by effect of competitive ports. Accordingly forecasting was needed overall approach about competitive port's development, alternation and information. But, until now, traffic forecasting was not executed according to competitive situation, and that was accomplished at the point of unit port. Generally, considering the competition situation, simulation method was desirable at forecasting because system's scale was increased, and the influence power was intensified. In this paper, considering this situation, the objectives can be outlined as follows. 1) Structural model constructs by System dynamics method. 2) Structural simulation model develops according to modelling of competitive situation by expended SD method which included HEP(Hierarchical Fuzzy Process) And actually, effectiveness was verified according to proposed model to major port in northeast asia.

In order to measure the performance of resources in a port container terminal, we conducted a state transition network simulation to model various equipment processes. The processes that container cranes and transfer cranes perform are idle, wait, move, and work. Vehicles perform idle, wait, empty travel, and full travel. Because cranes, vehicles, and vessels are movable entities and all equipment is classified as either a customer or server, we separated the various stages of the process based upon the state transition network To validate the simulation results, a real system was used to illustrate the use of various measurements using the state transition network.

This paper presents an approach to determine the vehicle fleet size for container shuttle service in a stochastic working environment. The shuttle service can be defined as the repetitive travel between the designated places during working period. The initial number of vehicles is temporarily calculated using the transportation model. Simulation is carried out in order to investigate dynamic behavior of container shuttle. Finally, the equation for estimating the vehicle fleet size is obtained through the multiple regression model based on simulation results.

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.

This paper deals with the development of simulation model for the container terminal consisting of 3 berths, 8 container cranes, 16 yard blocks with each yard cranes and 90 yard trucks in order to evaluate the various operational rules. The proposed operational rules are 3 ship dispatching rules, 3 berth allocation rules, 2 crane allocation rules, 2 yard allocation rules and 2 yard truck allocation rules and 4 performance measures like ship time in the terminal, ship time in the port, the number of ships processed and the number of containers handled are considered. The simulation result are as follows. 1) no difference among 3 ship dispatching rules, 2) berth allocation rules depends on performance measures 3) dynamic crane allocation is better than fixed policy 4) pooling yard allocation is better than short distance yard allocation rules and 5) fixed yard truck allocation by berth is a little better than pooling policy.

In precision agriculture (PA), the differences of the agriculture related parameters such as temperature, humidity, soil moisture among different fields are considered and analyzed to precisely utilize water, pesticides, fertilizer, seeds, etc. in fields. Hence, it becomes possible to increase the profit, reduce waste and maintain quality products. This paper suggests a framework for RFID sensor network in view of PA, especially, associated with Container-grown seedlings(CGS), and presents the analysis and simulation by using Ultra High Frequency (UHF) RFID tag system. The simulation is divided into the transmitter and receiver part using Matlab/Simulink. The architecture of the model is flexible to achieve different modulation and encoding types. Finally, some results of the simulation are presents.
