Developments in containership sizes and their impact on terminal productivity. Introduction Since the invention of the container‚ the developing of container vessels has gone fast. Where the first container vessel had a capacity of just 58 TEU‚ nowadays container vessels carry over 11‚000 TEU. This development happened in only 40 years. Before the invention of the container‚ cargo was handled by hand. The loading and unloading of ships took days or even weeks‚ in this way it was not possible to

circuit. 2. Construct the circuit above on the breadboard. Starting at the positive terminal of the +5 V power supply‚ follow the schematic around to install each component. 3. The first component is a wire that will connect the +5 V connection of the power supply to the resistor. 4. Install a 56KΩ resistor. a. One lead will be connected in the same row as the wire that goes to the power supply positive terminal. b. The second lead of the 56kΩ resistor can go into any other row of the protoboard
