An increase in container traffic, larger tonnage of vessels, scarcity port area, and shorter turnaround times have driven terminals to process more containers less time space. Thereby, the increasing focus on costs, safety, environmental control is forcing terminal operators search for innovative solutions. Automated are potential candidates improve performance represent a challenge any subsequ...

In this paper, a calculation method system of air pollutant emission inventory port operation machinery in container terminal is established. Through the special investigation manufacturers and engine manufacturers, average load rate data main engines domestic terminals are obtained. Taking as an example, dynamic fuel consumption used to calculate machinery, results two methods compared analyze...

Major maritime carriers are globally demanding improvements in the efficiency of port operations. Cargo carried by ships must be loaded and unloaded quickly with minimal stopover time port. This requirement mandates seaports to deploy cutting-edge technology area so that logistic processes increasingly efficient reliable. In this scenario, attack surface such critical infrastructure is growing ...

The purpose of this study is to assess the response of the aquatic environment (sediment, sea water and mussels Mytilus sp.) on uranium and radium activity and concentration following the decrease of phosphate discharges from a technologically improved transhipment terminal, situated at the CroatianAdriatic coast in the port of Sibenik. The highest U activities (485±16 Bq kg" dry weight) and Ra...

Globally, container terminals are trying to expand capacity and increase performance at a minimum of investments. Often the container terminal operations are changing to meet increased customer demands as well as to adapt to new technologies. This paper proposes a simulation model for container terminal system analysis. A simulation model is developed, called SIMPORT, which uses a Multi-Agents ...
