The inbound container space allocation in the automated container terminals
Expert Systems with Applications, 2021Abstract In this paper, we study an inbound container space allocation problem in the automated container terminals using simulation-embedded optimization. We aim to allocate the container terminal yard space for a batch of arrived inbound containers so as to minimize the total AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) waiting time in the space allocation ...

Routing of AGVs on automated container terminals
2015 IEEE 19th International Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work in Design (CSCWD), 2015An important aspect of the quayside operation at a container terminal is the transport of containers between the quaycranes and the stack area. On automated container terminals these transportation jobs are executed by Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs). Routing of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) is the process of determining routes for a set of AGVs to

Hierarchical Control of Equipment in Automated Container Terminals
2013The performance of container terminals needs to be improved to adapt the growth of handled containers and maintain port sustainability. This paper provides a methodology to improve the throughput of the container terminal in an energy-efficient way. The behaviors of equipment are considered as consisting of a higher level and a lower level representing

Planning for the TraPac Automated Container Terminal
Ports 2013, 2013TraPac operates B135-147 at the Port of Los Angeles. As part of a recent terminal expansion, TraPac decided to convert operations on a major portion of the terminal from conventional operations to a highly-automated system of container handling. In order for this conversion to be effective, a great number of issues had to be resolved by TraPac and POLA

A dispatching method for automated lifting vehicles in automated port container terminals
Computers & Industrial Engineering, 2009In automated container terminals, containers are transported from the marshalling yard to a ship and vice versa by automated vehicles. The automated vehicle type studied in this paper is an automated lifting vehicle (ALV) that is capable of lifting a container from the ground by itself. This study discusses how to dispatch ALVs by utilizing information

Scheduling cooperative twin automated stacking cranes in automated container terminals
Computers & Industrial Engineering, 2019Abstract In the considered Automated Container Terminal, twin (i.e., identical non-passing) automated stacking cranes are configured for each block. The twin Automated Stacking Cranes (ASCs) collaborate to serve storage and retrieval requests from opposite ends of a storage block.
