RISK assessment in airport maintenance runway condition using MCDA-C

Optimal Selection of Airport Runway Configurations

We present a mixed integer programming (MIP) model to solve the problems of (i) selecting an airport’s optimal sequence of runway configurations and (ii) determining the optimal balance of arrivals and departures to be served at any moment. These problems, the runway configuration management (RCM) problem and the arrival/departure runway balancing (ADRB) problem, respectively, are of critical i...

A Review of Airport Runway Optimization

Runway Scheduling for Charlotte Douglas International Airport

This paper explores a multiple runway scheduling problem and generates the schedule for arrivals, departures and crossing aircraft planning to use the runways within a given planning horizon. We present a mixed integer linear programming-based model that explicitly considers separation criteria between pairs of aircraft and also incorporates various Traffic Management Initiatives. It also inclu...

Detection Algorithm of Airport Runway in Remote Sensing Images

This article describes a rapid detection method of the airport runway for remote sensing images. The specific algorithm implementation steps are: Firstly, we use the Otsu's method to separate the runway from the images. Then we use the fractional differential gradient operator, which has good anti-noise performance and effective edge extraction ability, to extract the edge information of image,...

Airport runway detection in satellite images by Adaboost learning

Advances in hardware and pattern recognition techniques, along with the widespread utilization of remote sensing satellites, have urged the development of automatic target detection systems in satellite images. Automatic detection of airports is particularly essential, due to the strategic importance of these targets. In this paper, a runway detection method using a segmentation process based o...
