A Design of High Efficient Gantry Crane for Ultra Large Container Ship
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article presents the design system for high efficiency gantry crane system using elevator and conveyor system. The basic concept for the proposed gantry crane system can be used with modification of the classical gantry crane instead of changing lots of them. However, the proposed crane system can reduce the cycle time more than the classical gantry crane. The high efficiency gantry crane can also improve the productivity of the container transportation job because of reducing cycle time. In order to achieve the effectiveness of the proposed design system, the loading and unloading capabilities are compared with the classical crane, and then these results show that the proposed crane system has better performances than the classical type.

Comparison of AHP and FAHP for Selecting Yard Gantry Cranes in Marine Container Terminals
The time that containerships or transportation trucks spend in marine container terminals for loading and unloading their cargo is a real cost scenario which affects, not only the smooth operation of ports, but also affect the overall cost of container trade. The operators of shipping lines and container terminals are required to realize the importance of this issue and the costs associated wit...

The dramatic increasing of sea-freight container transportations and the developing trend for using containers in the multimodal handling systems through the sea, rail, road and land in the present market cause some challenges to the general managers of container terminals such as increasing demand, competitive situation, new investments and expansion of new activities and the need to use new m...
متن کاملOffshore Container Crane Systems with Robust Optimal Sliding Mode Control
Open-sea ship-to-ship transfer operation is an alternative way to avoid port congestion. This process involves a relatively small vessel which transports containers between the harbour and a large cargo ship equipped with a container crane. However, the presence of disturbances and uncertainties caused by harsh open-sea conditions can produce an excessive sway to the hoisting ropes of the crane...
متن کاملYard crane scheduling in port container terminals using genetic algorithm
Yard crane is an important resource in container terminals. Efficient utilization of the yard crane significantly improves the productivity and the profitability of the container terminal. This paper presents a mixed integer programming model for the yard crane scheduling problem with non- interference constraint that is NPHARD in nature. In other words, one of the most important constraints in...
متن کاملA continuous time model for multiple yard crane scheduling with last minute job arrivals
Container terminal (CT) operations are often bottlenecked by slow YC (yard crane) movements. Efficient YC scheduling to reduce the PM waiting time is therefore critical in increasing a CT’s throughput. This paper develops an efficient continuous time MILP model for YC scheduling. The model treats realistic operational constraints such as multiple inter-crane interference, fixed YC separation di...
