  • Transportation cost takes a major portion on logistics cost. The reduction of transportation cost is a key issue to achieve national competitiveness and logistics cost reduction. And railway must play a important role to shift from road freight transport to environment-friendly transport. There are many idle freight cars in railway freight transportation and they give rise to inefficient operation of freight car. It is well known that the main reason of idle freight cars is unbalanced demand according to direction. In this study, we analysed the current status on idle freight cars in railway at the level of daily data. This results help follow-up research to cut down idle freight cars in railway.

  • Automated Storage/Retrieval Systems(AS/RS) are widely utilized to increase the efficiency of logistics system. In this paper, to offer the basic data required for the standardization and automation of AS/RS, we look into the conditions of several domestic AS/RS manufacturing companies and examine the national and international market conditions and the technical levels of domestic companies. And also, for the domestic companies, government departments and logistics related organizations, we survey and analyze the present state for the installation, implementation and operation of AS/RS and the related equipment systems, and the degree of recognition for the relational aspects.

  • These days, environment has became more and more important global issues including Climate Change Convention which 40 developed countries have to decrease CO2 emission by 5.2% compared with 1990 emission. Rail transport in Korea are becoming more important as a solution for environment and energy owing to high energy consumption country. Rail transport is environment-friendly mode compared with truck mode (energy consumption 14.2 times, CO2 emission 13.4 times), but it has door-to-door problem and "DMT transport system for rail logistics" can be a solution for this problem and this system can lead to environment-friendly transport mode by rail. This study will review the background of worldwide and Korean DMT system, customers' needs, and analyze transport cost with other transport mode. Through theses kinds of review and analysis, this study will propose DMT terminal, DMT rolling stock, and DMT operation system.

  • The current legislation of the Port Authority which empowers the central government to control finance, personnel management, business of the Port Authority should be amended to allow the Port Authority to exercise its authority over port management and operation by gaining authority from the central government. In addition, to enhance Busan port's competitiveness and for a successive activation of the Susan Port Authority, it is necessary for the BPA to develop its new business and for the Busan Metropolitan City to establish both the department of Port Logistics and relevant regulations. The central government should also support and cooperate with the BPA rather than controlling the Authority.

  • Today, many middle-sized shipbuilding companies in Korea are experiencing strong competition from shipbuilding companies in other nations. This competition is particularly affecting small- and middle-sized shipyards, rather than the major shipyards that have their own support systems and development capabilities. The acquisition of techniques that would enable maximization of production efficiency and minimization of the gap between planning and execution would increase the competitiveness of small- and middle-sized Korean shipyards. In this paper, research on a simulation-based support system for ship production management, which can be applied to the shipbuilding processes of middle-sized shipbuilding companies, is presented. The simulation research includes layout optimization, load balancing, work stage operation planning, block logistics, and integrated material management. Each item is integrated into a network system with a value chain that includes all shipbuilding processes.

  • This Paper presents a heuristic algorithm for machine-part group formation considering part production information (Production volume, roution sequence, unit operation time, facility size) in cellular manufacturing logistics system. In general, factory space is restricted within limited size when cells are located. A twofold heuristic algorithm is developed for considering factory space restrictions of located cells. The first phase is a aggregation procedure to minimize inter cell movement for satisfactoring space restriction. The second phase is a rearrangement procedure to maximize line balancing efficiency between machines within the cell and non assigned machine during first phase. Numerical example is presented to verify the efficiency of proposed algorithm.

  • The possibility of developing musculoskeletal disorders increases with the length of service of the worker. Musculoskeletal disorders can occur when performing repetitive and forceful movements. Therefore, Cargo drivers operate repeatedly in the wrong posture for a long time. When loading and unloading a cargo, the cargo driver works repeatedly with force. Cargo operators are also exposed to musculoskeletal disorders in the working environment due to poor posture and repetitive movements. In this study, we are going to conduct a study on the level of awareness and prevention of the possibility of musculoskeletal disorders in cargo drivers for long periods of time. As a result of the study, the factors that cause musculoskeletal disorders in each group can occur during the long-term operation and preparation of drivers.
