This thesis contributes to the research of a complementary Truck Arrival Management system in order to increase the efficiency of the Liquid Bulk Terminal as a system in a global intermodal supply chain. Nowadays, terminals often suffer from congestion, despite the use of a Truck Arrival Management system. A Truck Arrival Management system...

Due to the constant growth of global maritime shipping, the optimization of grabs used for unloading bulk carriers is more and more relevant. Especially for a coarse material like limestone, the average payload can be improved, by altering the grab design. It is suggested that the penetration and cutting depth of a grab can be improved, which...

Despite the technological improvements in the dredging industry in the last decades, there are components that have not been investigated accordingly. One of them is the bow coupling bend pipe which can be found on trailing suction hopper dredgers. In contrast to most pipelines, the specific bend pipe is not only a means of transport for the...

The European Union has set itself the target of becoming climate neutral by 2050 through a series of policies affecting industries such as the energy sector. This sector will be subject to considerable change with renewable energies set to replace fossil fuels. However, the EU will not be able to solely rely on its domestic production of...

Over 5000 offshore wind turbine generators have been installed in the past decades. 80% of these wind turbines have a monopile foundation. Monopiles are hollow steel tubular piles with a diameter of up to 10m. The first phase of the monopile installation consists of the self-weight penetration into the seabed due to the mass of the monopile....

Ground Support Equipment (GSE) fleets must be made more sustainable to contribute to the achievement of emission stabilisation and reduction goals for a growing aviation sector. Electrification of GSE offers great opportunities to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions, thereby increasing sustainability. This research focuses on how to design an...

The potential for the production of green energy in the Netherlands is insufficiently utilized. The cause for this problem is the insufficient bearing capacity of industrial roofs for the installation of solar panels using ballast. This required ballast exceeds the bearing capacity of the roof structure, or exceeds the bearing capacity of the...

As part of the fatigue assessment of a stinger, member loads on tubular joints are determined with a beam model. A beam model is a simplified method of modelling complex structures out of circular hollow sections. In a standard beam model, no attention is paid to modelling the tubular joint itself. In the model, beam elements of the braces are...

The intermodal transportation transport is used to ship goods from A to B all over the world using different modes of transportation. The intermodal freight relies on the use of standardized containers for this transport. All empty containers need to be shipped back to the areas where there is a demand for empty containers. Since a standard...

The maritime industry faces more and more restrictions on the amounts of greenhouse gases, and particularly CO2 which the IMO allows to be emitted by ships. Carbon capture technology promises to be able to significantly reduce the CO2 emissions on ships and is most compatiblewith LNG powered vessels by filtering the CO2 from the exhaust gases....

Bulk materials such as iron ore transported by bulk carriers are commonly unloaded by the use of grabs. The unloading process is time consuming and increasing the unloading capacity is of big importance for terminals. A validated co-simulation developed by the TU Delft in cooperation with Nemag enables to test grabs in the virtual environment....

Grabs are often used for unloading bulk carriers that transport iron ore cargoes around the globe. The unloading process is time-consuming, and terminals strive to maximise their turnover capacity. Grab performance is a combination of maximum crane capacity, grab design and bulk material behaviour. Due to bulk uncertainties occurred by varying...

Baggage handling systems (BHS), are complex and integrate systems hidden within an airport. In this thesis, a model is developed which can generate BHS concept design automatically. This means that the model defines the type and amount of equipment needed and is able to develop a 3D model that can be used for volume reservation. The model takes...

In-plant transport systems are indispensable in facilities like manufacturing plants and warehouses as they enable the internal flow of goods. Facilities in the Maintenance Repair & Overhaul industry are no exception to this, but face some distinct challenges. This research presents an integrated approach to the conceptual design of an in...

Bulk handling grabs wear due to interaction with bulk material. In this research the geometrical shape of the grab is adjusted to reduce this wear. A DEM simulation using an iron ore pellet material model, created by S. Lommen, is used to assess different concepts. The material model is validated for forces, but not for wear. Wear measurements...

Within this research parcel behaviour over a bidirectional sorter is optimized to increase efficiency. Currently, influence of parcel properties on the sortation behaviour is unknown and equipment settings are set by experience rather than objective information. To gain insight in the behaviour first, a simulation model has been developed and...

Allseas’ Jacket Lift System (JLS) is a system which is currently being developed and capable of transporting, installing and removing a jacket of a production platform as a whole. As the Block Handling System (BHS), responsible of maintaining tension in the main hoist wires by providing a constant tension (CT) counter force, is preferably...

Dust liberation in transfer chutes has been a persistent problem in the bulk handling industry, with an increasing demand for solutions due to the tightening of environmental regulations. An investigation into the root causes of dust liberation and a chute redesign with improvements in dust liberation potential has been performed in this...
