The objective of this paper is to analyze the combined productivity at container terminal. We present a mode3 for combined productivity that perform the container transportation between apron and yard. Usually, the efficiency of container terminal is evaluated by productivity of container cranes at apron, but there are other equipment such as transport vehicles and yard cranes. Therefore, a method that can estimate the combined productivity of equipment of container terminal is required. We performed various simulation experiment and analyzed combined productivity to estimate the required number of equipment.

The awareness of the high-value industry for container terminal leads competitiveness of container terminals to keep high fiercely. In regards to competitive factors of container terminal, the most important point among several factors is seemed to be the speed of container loading and unloading on quayside. In container terminals in Korea, the productivity shows big difference even though its condition is similar to each terminal. The objective of this paper is to find the critical factors of container terminal productivity, which is dependant upon the capability, quantity of quay crane, transfer vehicle, and so on. For this purpose, we have researched related literatures, and collected data about container terminals in South Korea. Furthermore, we tested sensitive analysis to evaluate the extent of productivity by changing independent variable. And then we established the regression model to evaluate which factor has had the biggest impact on productivity. The results of this paper can give terminal operators guideline to improve productivity.

In this study, we propose an RFID based container terminal operation process. Field tests are conducted for 900 MHz (truck identification) tag and 433 MHz RFID (container identification/e-seal) tag at an Incheon container terminal to verify possibility of applying RFID in the container terminal gate. To evaluate effect of applying RFID in the container terminal operation, simulation models for current and RFID based container terminals are developed using ARENA. Simulations are carried out using industrial field data and the result indicates that performance of the container terminal can be prominently improved after RFID application.

오늘날과 같이 급속히 변화하는 기업경영 환경에서 조직이 생존하고 번영하기 위해 기업의 경영 성과를 향상시켜야 하고 이를 위해서는 생산성 또는 효율성을 꾸준히 평가할 필요가 있다. 최근 컨테이너터미널 업체수는 증가하였음에도 불구하고 물동량의 증가가 미미하여, 물동량 확보를 위한 컨테이너터미널 운영사간의 선사 및 화물유치를 위한 경쟁이 치열해지고 있다. 이러한 경쟁은 하역요율이 하락하고 컨테이너터미널 운영사들의 경영수지가 악화되고 있는 추세이다. 따라서 본 논문은 DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis) 방법론을 이용하여 국내 컨테이너터미널 운영사의 경영 효율성을 비교 분석함으로써 컨테이너터미널 운영사의 경영 효율성 수준을 파악해 보았다. 본 연구는 기업 경영 분석에서 산출기초가 되는 가장 중요한 인건비, 임대료, 관리비용과 같은 비용항목을 투입변수로 선정하였으며, 산출변수에는 매출액, 영업이익을 선정하여 2009년도 경영 효율성을 분석하였다. 분석 대상들은 효율적인 컨테이너터미널 운영사와 비효율적인 운영사들로 구분하고, 비효율적인 운영사는 상대적으로 얼마나 비효율적인지에 대한 정보와 경영 효율성을 갖추기 위한 개선 방안을 제시한다.

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.

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.

In this paper, we deal with an allocation model of vertical type container yard for minimizing the total ATC (Automated Transfer Crane) working time and the equivalence of ATC working load in each block on automated container terminal. Firstly, a layout of automated container terminal yard is shown The characteristic of equipment which work in the terminal and its basic assumption are given Next, an allocation model which concerns with minimizing the total working time and the equivalence of working load is proposed for effectiveness of ATC working in automated container terminal. Also, a weight values on critical function are suggested to adjust the critical values by evaluating the obtained allocation plan. For ATC allocation algorithm, we suggest a simple repeat algorithm for on-line terminal operation.

By the rapid expansion of containerization and intermodal transportation in international shipping since the 1970's, the larger containerships have emerged and concentrated their calls at a limited number of ports. Moreover, large-scale container terminals have been built to accommodate the ever-larger containerships, and the mordernization of terminal facilities and many developments in information technology etc. have been brought out. Thus, unlimited competition has been imposed on every terminal with neighbouring ports in Japan, Singapore, Hongkong and Taiwan etc. The purpose of this study is to suggest how the container terminal operators cope with unlimited competition between local or foreign terminals. The results are suggested as follows: First, transshipment cargoes, which the added value is high, is to be induced. Second, the function of storage is given on On-Dock Yard. Third, Berth Pool Operation System is to be introduced, especially in Gamman Container Terminal and Kwangyang Container Terminal. Fourth, the cargo handling charges is to be decided by terminal operator.

세계적으로 컨테이너 물동량의 증가, 선박의 대형화 및 고속화, 터미널 운영비의 증가 및 기술환경의 변화로 인해 자동화 컨테이너터미널(Aotomated Container Terminal： ACT)에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있고, 기존의 외국 ACT는 자동화 영역을 확장해 가고 있으며 세부 기술연구에 박차를 가하고 있는 실정이다. 국내에서도 세계적 추세를 인지하고, ACT의 필요성을 절감하여 1998년 10월 해양수산부에서 "ACT 개발 추진계획"을 수립하면서 ACT 개발에 관한 연구에 지원하고, ACT 건설을 추진하기로 하였다. 이후 1999년 12월에 해양수산부와 과학기술부는 "첨단항만 핵심기술 개발사업"을 "국가중점연구개발사업"으로 선정하였고, 현재 정부 지원아래 추진 및 연구 중에 있다. 이러한 자동화 컨테이너터미널 계획 및 개발에 관한 프로젝트가 추진되면서 터미널 운영, 자동화 장비, 정보시스템 구축에 관한 기술발전이 이루어지고 있다. 컨테이너터미널의 자동화는 장비뿐만 아니라 정보시스템과의 원활한 연계를 통해 이루어질 수 있다. 그래서 자동화의 수준은 운영시스템의 개발시기, 신뢰성, 투자비용, 취급물동량, 기술수준 등 제반요소에 따라 달라진다. 본 연구는 해외 선지 ACT의 유형 및 유형별 특성을 파악하고, 각 유형별 특성을 분석함으로써 향후 ACT 개발 시 핵심적으로 고려해야 할 사항들을 제시할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
