Abstract

Many container terminals in the world are considering an introduction of automated container carrier system and remote control system for container handling equipment into their yard. When considering automation in a container terminal, it is necessary to construct an evaluation method to clarify functional evaluation and evaluate a layout plan in a new yard. This research aims are to develop a container handling simulation model and a functional evaluation method to be convenient to evaluate alternations of layout plans. Also, we focus on evaluating some different types of layout plans such as a parallel stacking system and a vertical stacking system by the developed functional evaluation method.
