Research Abstract |
As the containerships have become larger, the container terminals in foreign counties come up with various ideas to make the layout in order to be smoothly operated. There are many rectangular container terminals in the world. However, there are also polygonal terminals in foreign counties. In the rectangular terminal, one aisle between container blocks is located in same interval as others along the quay length, and the size of one container block is also same as others. In the polygonal terminal, the aisle between container blocks located and the size of container block are dependent on the shape and the region and so on. Therefore, this study proposes the algorithm for optimizingthe aisle location between container blocks and the container arrangement in yard area with a shape given in advance.
