A Mixed Integer Linear Program for Airport Departure Scheduling
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aircraft departing from an airport are subject to numerous constraints while scheduling departure times. These constraints include wake-separation constraints for successive departures, miles-in-trail separation for aircraft bound for the same departure fixes, and time-window or prioritization constraints for individual flights. Besides these, emissions as well as increased fuel consumption due to inefficient scheduling need to be included. Addressing all the above constraints in a single framework while allowing for resequencing of the aircraft using runway queues is critical to the implementation of the Next Generation Air Transport System (NextGen) concepts.

متن کاملA Mixed Integer Linear Program for Solving a Multiple Route Taxi Scheduling Problem
Aircraft movements on taxiways at busy airports often create bottlenecks. This paper introduces a mixed integer linear program to solve a Multiple Route Aircraft Taxi Scheduling Problem. The outputs of the model are in the form of optimal taxi schedules, which include routing decisions for taxiing aircraft. The model extends an existing single route formulation to include routing decisions. An ...
متن کاملIncorporating Active Runway Crossings in Airport Departure Scheduling
A mixed integer linear program is presented for deterministically scheduling departure and arrival aircraft at airport runways. This method addresses different schemes of managing the departure queuing area by treating it as first-in-first-out queues or as a simple parking area where any available aircraft can take-off irrespective of its relative sequence with others. In addition, this method ...

متن کاملOptimizing Integrated Arrival, Departure and Surface Operations Under Uncertainty
In airports and surrounding terminal airspaces, the integration of arrival, departure and surface scheduling and routing have the potential to improve operations efficiency. Recent research developed a mixed-integer-linear-programming algorithm-based scheduler for integrated arrival and departure operations in the presence of uncertainty. This paper extends previous research to the surface to i...
