| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 工業管理研究所 === 96 === The research of this thesis focus on multiple-load AGV waiting strategies and dispatching rules on container terminal. In recent years, the international trade amount of containers have increased year by year which leaded to enhance efficiency and the turnover rate at seaport. Our purpose is to minimize the total time that AGVs service a ship. AGVs are means for horizontal transport of containers between Quay Crane operation area and Stacking Crane operation area.
In this thesis, the proposed control strategy divides the the multiple-load AGV control dispatching problem into two, the first pick-up dispatching rules and second pick-up dispatching rules. The first pick-up dispatching rules determine AGV should go to which Quay Crane for loading container when it is empty. Then the second pick-up dispatching rules determine which Quay Crane that should to service after AGV had loaded a 20ft container. And also the AGV waiting strategies are, if no other Quay Cranes have 20ft container to do, AGV could determine whether stay or not.
Finally, we use simulation programming (Arena 11.0) to analyze the performance such as AGV total service time, Quay Crane average waiting time, AGV average waiting time and difference of different AGV dispatching rules.
