Technical FAQs 4
What is automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in automated container terminals?
Efficient scheduling of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in automated container terminals (ACTs) is crucial to their operations management under the initiative of green port and smart port development.
What is a container terminal?
A container terminal is a dedicated facility at a seaport designed to link sea and land cargo flows using specialized equipment for handling, transporting, and stacking containers. Typically, container terminals are split into three distinct areas, that is, seaside, yard, and landside.
How can automated container terminals improve operational efficiency?
Automating container terminals can significantly improve the operation efficiency of the terminals and reduce energy consumption, time, and transportation resources. Automated guided vehicles (AGVs), used to transport containers between the seaside and the yard side, are very important for automated container terminal (ACT) performance.
Are container terminals sustainable?
Most existing reviews on environmental sustainability in container terminals are focused primarily on academic research. However, a significant gap exists in examining and analyzing real-world projects and initiatives.
