Aircraft require significant quantities of fuel in order to generate the power required to sustain a flight. Burning this fuel causes the release of polluting particles to the atmosphere and constitutes a direct cost attributed to fuel consumption. The optimization of various aircraft operations in different …

In this paper, a general approach for modeling airport operations is presented. Airport operations have been extensively studied in the last decades ranging from airspace, airside and landside operations. Due to the nature of the system, simulation techniques have emerged as a powerful approach for dealing …

The airport of Mexico City has been declared saturated for most of the day. For that reason, the Mexican government announced a couple of years ago the construction of a completely new one which is supposed to be operative in 2020 in its first phase. However, the technical issues and the economic downturn …

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Because of the enormous growth of the aviation industry, Schiphol requires to expand its operations. The limitation of 500,000 aircraft movements led to an agreement about the expansion of a regional airport to accommodate the overcapacity of Schiphol Airport. Lelystad Airport was chosen …
