Design and Implementation of a Digital Twin System for Monitoring Automated Container Terminal Equipment
Journal Title: Mechatronics and Intelligent Transportation Systems - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
To address the lack of multi-perspective, real-time monitoring and management of operations and equipment in automated container terminals, a digital twin system targeted at monitoring automated container terminal equipment has been designed and developed. Based on the concept of a five-dimensional model of digital twins, a digital twin framework for monitoring automated container terminal equipment was constructed. The system's maintainability is enhanced through a layered design, which also reduces coupling between different functional modules. A multi-dimensional, multi-scale virtual scene was built and model consistency evaluations were conducted to verify the system. The system's operational efficiency was improved by optimizing model rendering with discrete level of detail (LOD) techniques. A multi-layered distributed solution for the digital twin system was proposed to achieve multi-perspective monitoring. Ultimately, using a specific automated container terminal as a case study, a system prototype was developed, realizing multi-perspective digital monitoring of terminal operations and equipment. This project offers a solution for the application of digital twin technology in the field of automated container terminals and promotes the development of intelligent digital terminals.
