Definition

M

A Cycle characterises a discrete process that involves a subject (CHE or any subsubject like trolley, spreader; also valid for TOS cycles) when moving a payload (which can be aggregated into different units) from one location to another.

TIC Description

Further Detail

O

A single CYCLE can be described as the sum of numerous subject Moves.

The subject Cycles are always related to the subsystems of the subject (i.e. spreader of the STS, RTGs of the Yard, and STSs of the Berth). A complete subject Cycle of one subsystem starts when the previous one finishes (it is cyclical), and finishes when the cargo is completely released from the considered sub-system (realise from realise). Thus, the job of the subsystem is done and the next job is ready to start (e.g. for an STS the spreader has all twistlocks open and starts the next job. For a Yard, when the RTG or the SC releases the container in the yard or takes out the container and releases it on the TZ).

Laden and Unladen cycle

A normal working discrete process always has two subprocesses, one with cargo that represents the Laden Cycle and another without cargo that represents the Unladen Cycle.

The normal working Cycle will start with the start of the start of the unladen cycle and finish with the end of Unladen cycle

An unladen cycle describes the process or movements of a subject (normally a CHE) without cargo payload(s).

A laden cycle describes the process or movements of a subject  (normally a CHE) with cargo payload(s).

Concepts for CYCLE:
Id, loading, discharging, useful, unuseful, paid, unpaid, handling reason, move, load, energy, start, end, laden, unladen, active, inactive, idle (nothing to do and not work instruction) , working (doing something che.working.status: true, or with a work instruction).

A cycle also can have a link with: cargo, cargovisit, carrier, and carriervisit.

Cycle live:
A cycle starts when the subject turns ON or ends the previous cycle and a cycle ends when the subject turns OFF or finish the job was designed for (safely unlock the payload that is moving

Could happen that a cycle does not move anything, because the subject just turns ON and then OFF.
