Title: AIRPORT-AIRSPACE SIMULATIONS FOR CAPACITY EVALUATION: TRB 79TH ANNUAL MEETING WORKSHOP, JANUARY 9, 2000, WASHINGTON, D.C.
Accession Number: 00816412
Record Type: Component
Availability: N/AFind a library where document is available Abstract: The primary objective of this workshop was to provide a forum to demonstrate and discuss airspace and airfield capacity evaluation studies and present state-of-the-art airport-airspace simulation models. Presentations of recent applications were made, and their findings discussed. The workshop was designed to improve the understanding of airport capacity evaluation and elaborate on technical details and requirements of the analysis involved in these studies. The advantages of simulations to provide realistic and dynamic evaluation of the complex interactions of the system were highlighted and discussed. The workshop format contained sets of panels of software developers, with simulation users group representatives demonstrating the simulations and airport managers/planners with airport consultants presenting and discussing recent capacity studies. Discussions covered the assumptions, simulation logic, data requirements and management, modeling approaches, analytical techniques, evaluation methods, findings, and management of the conduct of airport simulation studies. Covered in this workshop were airport simulations, including SIMMOD-based simulation, the Airport Machine, and the total airport-airspace modeler as well as the detailed policy assessment tool for airport systems simulation. The attendants of this workshop included airport managers, planners, and engineers; airport engineering/planning consultants; airlines' operations planners; aviation researchers; state airport/aviation planners; and Federal Aviation Administration staff in aviation/airport planning, capacity, and air traffic management.
