Monograph

The papers in this volume were selected for awards in a nationwide competition under the 2009-2010 Graduate Research Award Program on Public-Sector Aviation Issues. The program is sponsored by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and administered by the Transportation Research Board (TRB) through the Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP). The purpose of the Graduate Research Award Program is to encourage applied research on airport and related aviation system issues and to foster the next generation of aviation community leaders. The 11 papers in this volume were peer-reviewed by members of the ACRP Selection Panel for the Graduate Research Award Program on Public-Sector Aviation Issues, with additional expert advice. Topics discussed in these papers include the following: blunt impact on composite panels; air traffic flow management; reactive chemistry in aircraft exhaust; multiairport choice models; modeling emergency evacuation of individuals with disabilities in an airport; the rolling dynamic deflectometer device for evaluating rigid airfield pavements; single airport delay impact on the National Airspace System; sustainability evaluation of selected airport pavement treatments; public policy model of delays in major airports; air connectivity for residents of federally designated essential air service communities; and legal challenges to airport expansion.
