The development and integration of autonomous power sources (APSs) for electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure are essential for reducing dependency on centralized power grids and advancing sustainable transportation.
To enhance the logistics scheduling efficiency of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in automated ports and achieve the orderly charging and battery swapping of AGVs as well as self-sufficient clean energy, this paper
Automated Crane Operations and Scheduling: A bird''s-eye view of a maritime container terminal showing multiple automated cranes moving containers in perfect synchronization, with a digital overlay of scheduling data and paths. Recent research confirms that AI algorithms enhance crane scheduling.
AGV-Based Vehicle Transportation in Automated Container Terminals: A Survey Published in: IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems ( Volume: 24, Issue: 1, January 2023 )
Automated guided vehicles (AGVs), used to transport containers between the seaside and the yard side, are very important for automated container terminal (ACT) performance. Meanwhile, container terminals lack systematic resilience and often operate poorly after emergencies.
In this study, we explore energy minimum AVS/RS warehouse design providing maximum utilization of resources in the system. We consider, rack design in terms of number of aisles, tiers and bays as well as number of AVs as decision variables in the design and, energy minimization as objective function.
To enhance the logistics scheduling efficiency of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in automated ports and achieve the orderly charging and battery swapping of AGVs as well as self-sufficient clean energy, this paper proposes an integrated optimization method.
As container flows coming off container ships increase and shipping lines demand better performance from container terminals, partial or full automation will likely become a must for many ports.
The advancement of energy storage technologies plays a pivotal role in enhancing the viability of autonomous delivery vehicles. Batteries and ultra-capacitors have emerged as the two primary technologies, each with distinct characteristics and applications.
For automated container terminals, the effective integrated scheduling of different kinds of equipment such as quay cranes (QCs), automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and yard cranes (YCs) is of great significance in
A simulation model of battery-powered AGV for container transportation is proposed, which allows the simulation of instantaneous energy consumption during container transportation and can be used to solve energy consumption optimization tasks
For automated container terminals, the effective integrated scheduling of different kinds of equipment such as quay cranes (QCs), automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and yard cranes (YCs) is of great significance in reducing energy consumption and achieving sustainable development.
