TIC Description

Definition

M

A Cycle characterises a discrete process that involves a subject (ie process, CHE…) 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 (ie 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 take out the container and releases it on the TZ).

Laden and Unladen cycle

The system cycle starts with the start of the unladen cycle and ends with the start of the next unladen cycle. An unladen cycle describes the movements of a system without payload(s). A laden cycle describes the movements of a CHE with payload(s).
