DEVICE WHICH MODELS OPERATIONS OF SHIPPING LOCKS Russian patent published in 1998 - IPC

FIELD: computer engineering, in particular, modeling of strategies for ship traffic through shipping locks taking into account dynamics and specifics of their use. SUBSTANCE: device has model of central control unit of shipping lock, which has three flip-flops, two random pulse generators, nine OR gates, indicator, and eight OR gates. In addition device has model of shipping lock chamber, which has six random pulse generators, and OR gate. In addition device has model of upper pool traffic light, model of lower pool traffic light, each of which has flip-flop and two indicators. In addition device has models of upper pool and lower pool, each of which has random pulse generator, reverse pulse counter and OR gate. EFFECT: increased precision of simulation, increased functional capabilities and field of application due to simulation of generation and control of ship queue in upper and lower pools, choice of different locking strategies, and simulation of direct ship locking. 1 dwg
