  • Recently, mutual economy cooperation in Northeast Asia has leaded steady growth among main countries of it and rather promoted a single economy circle. In this region, Busan container port competes with min container ports in China, Taiwan and Japan in it for attracting transshipment container traffic of north-Shanghai in China and for-east Russia. Therefore, this paper aims to suggest competitive strategies for Busan container port to attract container traffic in Northeast Asia To do so, it evaluates the preference of important ports in the competitive situation and competitiveness edgy of important ports in Northeast Asia, and finally proposes the relative order of important factors. Based on the evaluation of it, first, the Busan ports hue tn strengthen port facilities to attract more traffic and in detail, reinforce the number of berth, yard areas and handling equipment Second, they also have to provide high quality of services to deliver cargos in time, not being damaged and swiftly response to shipowner and shipper's claim, Third, they need to review the strategy to adopt flexible tariff policy and to invest the profit from tariff in port service and facilities, as providing higher port tariff level by a regular rate.

  • The purpose of this study is to elucidate the formation process and spatial characteristics of the first and largest open port of Foreign Settlement in Yokohama, Japan. Based on the reference records and maps, we traced the process of modernization, example of opening the park and introduction of technology, industrial & infra-structural facilities. And found out the characteristics of formation process of port city Yokohama as the modernized city. The results of this study are as follows: First, the spatial characteristics and significance of the public space of the port open space; second, the difference of the road and parcel systems between the Japanese and the foreign settlements; and third, the meaning of the port open space as the space of separation in that times. These experiences about the open port in Yokohama could be worked as the basic for domestic and colonial city planning.

  • Purpose: As China experienced a crisis due to Covid-19, the global supply chain collapsed and affected the world. Therefore, it is time for a change in port operational efficiency, increasing in importance with changes in the global supply chain. This study analyzed Shanghai Port's efficiency, the world's largest port and representative hub port in Northeast Asia, by looking at the relationship between facility factors and cargo throughput to present hub port development's timely implications. Research design, data and methodology: This study applied the Charnes, Cooper, and Rhodes (CCR) and Banker, Chames, and Cooper (BCC) models of the data development analysis (DEA) to construct an analysis from the input-oriented and output-oriented perspectives. Results: As a result, Yidong Container Terminal can be considered the most optimized in facilities and operation processes. Yidong and Shengdong Container Terminal should maintain current operating levels, while Pudong Container Terminal should review facility investments. Also, Zhendong, Huong, Mingdong, and Guandong Container Terminal should be reviewed to increase cargo throughput or to adjust current input variables in the current state. Conclusions: Therefore, the utilization of the container terminal input variables should be reviewed, and the factors of inefficiency should be improved. Moreover, the strategic focus of container terminal operations should be on increasing annual cargo throughput.

  • Confined Disposal Facilities(CDF) are an effective and commonly used management option for contaminated dredged material. CDF is an engineered contstruction for containment of contaminated dredged material to control potential releases to the environment. Although the concept is simple, constructing a CDF is a complex and non-standard process. In the process of planning a CDF, many different fields of expertise have to be considered, such as civil engineering, landscaping, chemistry, legislation, social impact, and environmental engineering. This paper provides the concise overview of common guidance on CDF.

  • According to the research and investigations performed on Port Facilities for cargo-works of hazardous materials around the Port of Busan, a conclusion was drawn that the manually operating foam tower monitors are ineffective as they are hard to access due to the radiant heat under contingency circumstances such as a fire. Moreover, in some cases, the effective range of Foam Tower Monitors are insufficient to reach docked ships and manifolds where hazardous materials are being unloaded. In addition, Dangerous Goods freights are inadequately and inefficiently stored regardless properties of hazardous substances due to complicated local regulations, and some are equipped with inapplicable facilities for docked ships. Therefore, in order to effectively counteract the contingencies and obtain safety, it would be recommended to install adequate facilities.

  • This paper studied safety benefit of operation-effectiveness analysis on marine traffic safety facilities. In the operation-effectiveness of marine traffic safety facilities the benefits can be divided as safety benefit, transport benefit, and other benefit. Safety benefit was produced as the loss aversion cost of marine traffic caused by the reduction of marine accidents after establishing and operating marine traffic safety facilities. First of all the reduction rate marine accidents was estimated to do it, and the detail model of loss aversion cost was constructed Then each variable in the model was defined and the method of computation presented.

  • Today the congestion problem is a problem for the most of the cities to solve. Especially, traffic congestion in the big cities is occurring regardless of the rush-hours. Because the transportation facilities secured in the big cities are very low, and the financial resources and sites for the expansion of new transportation facilities are also limited. Therefore the appropriate Transportation system Management(TSM) techniques which could improve the transportation system are absolutely required to solve the transportation problems instead of the expansion of the transportation facilities in the big cities. The purpose in this study was to review the travel characteristics on the Pretimed Signalized - Intersections under the study in Pusan area, construct the travel systems during the different time-periods based upon the travel characteristics reviewed, and finally suggest the optimal travel systems which could reduce the traffic delay and fuel consumption of the Pretimed Signalized - Intersections based upon the travel system constructed. Based upon the results, it could be concluded that the pretimed signal system based upon the on-peak periods should not be applied to all the different time-periods on the Pretimed Signalized - Intersections(PSI) to reduce traffic delay and fuel consumption, and increase the travel capacity on the intersections in Pusan area.

  • As the circumstances surrounding world ports have changed rapidly, Port competition to attract more cargoes is increasing fiercely. Especially, fierce competition to attract the increasing container cargoes has cause main container ports on only to invest enormous fund to modernize its port facilities but also to improve efficiency in port operation and management. But, it is hard to build differentiation strategy with general port operation according to investing continuously enormous fund into main ports. In this situation, port marketing like 4P mix is of the immediate necessity and in this point, this paper estimated Brand Equity that have risen the core ability of marketing strategy, to transshipment port using Conjoint Analysis. In this analysis result, this paper shows that the brand equity of port significantly devoted to selection of transshipment port. This means that brand of port can attract considerable transshipment cargo. Then it have to induce customer loyalty for this brand extension.

  • This paper describes the standardization of remote monitoring and controlling system for nursery electrical facilities. The proposed system have three operating modes of motoring, controlling, and fault-notifying. In fault-notifying mode, the local unit is designed to send messages on failure of the electrical facilities to the central computer, mobile phone, and pager. Also, the local unit is consisted of 24-input and 8-output port needed for monitoring and controlling the facilities. With the use of this standardized system, we could expect the effective management in every phase of nursery facilities.
