Voyage Model Sample Clauses

Voyage Model. The clear statement of the mission is a major requirement for the ship design process. In ConceptSHIP the concept of Voyage Model is used to characterize an operational Scenario for the assessment of economic and environmental aspects. In this system, a data model is developed to specify the classes of entities used in a marine transport, their attributes and associations. The main entities considered are the ship, the ports and the voyage legs. The Port/Terminal entity data includes mainly attributes for the determination of the time in port and the associated costs. The port costs include the port fees and others such as pilotage and towing. The port fees have different structures in the different ports but in general they are mainly estimated as a function of the ship type and of the gross tonnage. The total time in port consists of time for manoeuvring, time waiting for berth and the total time at the berth. The time at berth is the one used to compute the port fees and can be further analysed in service time (mooring and un-mooring), the time spent in cargo handling and the time waiting at berth. The cargo handling rates are considered separately for loading and unloading to cover the possibility of different types of equipment used (cranes, gantry cranes), with different unit costs. The actual volume of cargo handled can be specified either as a percentage of the ship total capacity or as a number of cargo units (TEU, tons, vehicles), for each port call. The VoyageLeg entity consists of a set of attributes necessary for the evaluation of the time at sea and of the overall fuel consumption due to its major contribution to the operating costs but also for the levels of emissions. A voyage leg is initially considered as the route between two consecutive ports. However, it may be further split in as many legs as needed to characterize any different restrictions or conditions that affect the time at sea, the costs or the emissions. The same logic applies when modelling a part of the route with specific characteristics of sea state or water depth conditions which can originate added resistance. In addition to the leg length, the water density and water depth type are also specified so that sailing in inland waterways can be modelled. The service speed can be specified for each leg or identical for the entire voyage. The cargo loaded and unloaded at each port can be specified, as well as the status of the consumables (departure, mid-voyage, arrival) and bal...
