Abstract

This study looks at the degrees of interference for multiple cranes that work simultaneously at six major container terminals in the port of Kaohsiung. The results confirm that there are different degrees of mutual crane interference among terminals where different operational modes are adapted in the container yards. RTG handling systems show a very high value of aggregate cranes exponent f, with nearly no interference, as long as the number of allocated cranes is no more than the number of truck lanes under each crane. While SC systems reveal a relatively larger degree of mutual interference as the number of cranes increase.
