Airport Congestion Mitigation through Dynamic Control of Runway Configurations and of Arrival and Departure Service Rates under Stochastic Operating Conditions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Engineering Systems Division, 2014-05)The high levels of flight delays require the implementation of airport congestion mitigation tools. In this paper, we optimize the utilization of airport capacity at the tactical level in the face of operational uncertainty. ... -
The impact of high-speed rail and low-cost carriers on European air passenger traffic
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Engineering Systems Division, 2013-07)The expansion of high-speed passenger rail service is often argued as a potentially effective, lower-carbon substitute for intercity air travel. Previous studies on high-speed rail on air travel in Europe and Asia have ... -
