AMR

The heavy quayside container crane is the key equipment of handling production in container terminal, because the general simulation system can not provide the detail information of the single crane unit during working process, this work proposed a novel method to visualize the working process of the crane. Analyzed the basic mechanisms and typical working condition, based on which, discussed the modeling method for working process visualization, and then gave the internal structure of 3D crane model. This work designed the control logic to drive the 3D graphic elements of the visualization system, implemented the working process visualization according to the working waiting list of the crane.

“…J.B.Klaassens, G.HonderdWilliam [9] et al have developed a simulation system of container terminal based on VR technology; H.Horsthemke and Michael R.Nevins [10] have discussed the means of 3D graphics technology applied to simulate the terminal simulation. Yijun Chen et al [11] [12] introduced the novel component technologies to develop a flexible 3D visualization system of container terminal. However, the case of applying 3D visualization technology into bulk terminal logistics system is stil l rare.…”

The 3D visualization technology is a kind of means and methods to achieve the human-computer interaction. Instead of the discrete objects in container terminal yard, the cargo in bulk terminal yard is always being a form with particle. This paper gives a method which integrates modeling manually and real-time reconstruction automatically to achieve 3D visualization of bulk terminal yard. Since to meet the requirement of real-time rendering and also decision data computing fast, this paper designs the data structure to describe the digital stockpile formed with a hierarchy relationship between surfaces, sections and space points, and also considers the closest distance as the main condition for searching and updating an old section, to visualize the working process in bucket terminal yard.

“…United States Department of Defense(DoD) [1] [2] put forward the requirements of establishing modeling and simulation resource repository(MSRR) in modeling and simulation master plan(MSMP); Gong Min [3]did the researches on model-base, resource repository and its management system; Shawn Parr and Anthony Jones [4] built the Distributed Simulation Repository; Du Qiangfang and etc. [5] proposed the concept framework of MSRR according to the component idea; Chen Yijun [6] and Lu Houjun [7] gave a novel method to design the components of container terminal 3D simulation, aimed to improve the development efficiency by component re-usage.…”

3D visualization simulation is the important research method of port logistic production system, whereas the lack of uniform standard and interface of 3D simulation model, it is very difficult to share the simulation model resource, and which caused modeling repeatedly and developing efficiency lowly. Container terminal 3D simulation model repository should be considered as the key factor of solving the problems of developing low-efficiency and model no reuse of logistic system. This paper classified the model resources required by container terminal 3D simulation, explained the functions of container terminal 3D simulation model repository, and gave its framework. Finally, we discussed the key techniques to implement the container terminal 3D simulation model repository.
