Design of an electric Long-Twin spreader for straddle carriers

With container ships transporting increasingly more containers while simultaneously shorter waiting times are desired, containers have to be handled faster and more efficient. This is noticed among others by the growing application of Long-Twin spreaders in Straddle Carriers (SCs). At the same time environmental impact is becoming increasingly...

Methods to improve situation awareness of an operator

This paper describes a new method to identify information overload problems in an alarm system. This method can also be used to become aware of the performance of an alarm system and to present the effectiveness of alarm rationalisation. Furthermore we show that pattern detection can be used to find meaningful patterns. Furthermore this paper...
