Increasing number of air travellers in recent years and the emergence of multi-airport cities throughout the world has made the behaviour of travellers regarding the choice of the origin airport even more important. Analysis of this behaviour helps for a better future planning and development of competing airports as an important element of their demand prediction. In this paper, particular emp...

Numerous studies have illustrated how denser urban forms lead to smaller greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from passenger transport. Many of these studies have excluded aviation since the association between urban structure and air travel is not as intuitive as it is the case of ground travel. However, several recent studies have concluded that air travel is a significant contributor to the GHGs f...

In the process of the optimum design of aprons, solutions should be found for problems and such issues as the optimum area and dimensions of the apron, including the passenger and the cargo the number and dimensions of the gates on the basis of different types of aircraft parking configuration aircraft simulation and arrangement in different time periods of the given day at the airport. In this...

A fundamental component of any National Airspace System (NAS) performance evaluation is the cost impact of air traffic delays, and more generally capacity limitations, on the travelling passengers. In previous research it has been conclusively shown that flight delay data and flightcentric metrics fail to accurately represent the passenger travel experience and passenger trip delays accurately....

Air Pollution is one of the significant problems in Tehran. Understanding the role of different sources can result in better decision-making. Some pollutions are not emitted directly from sources and are present in the atmosphere due to chemical reactions. Therefore, using air quality modeling can be beneficial to our understanding of these phenomena. An air quality modeling system was used fir...

OBJECTIVE To estimate the risk of serious nonfatal injuries in frontal crashes among belted children seated in the right front seat of vehicles in which second-generation passenger air bags deployed compared with that of belted children seated in the right front seat of vehicles in which first-generation passenger air bags deployed. DESIGN AND SETTING We enrolled a probability sample of 1781 ...

Air travel is becoming increasingly more accessible to people both through the availability of cheap flights and because the airlines are now able to cater for individuals of all ages and disabilities. Air travels, especially for long haul, may cause both physiological and psychological discomfort to passenger. Passenger comfort is clearly a main factor in user’s acceptance of transportation sy...

Air travel is becoming increasingly more accessible to people both through the availability of low cost flights. Health problems may arise due to anxiety and unfamiliarity with airport departure procedures prior to flying, whilst during the air travel, problems may arise as a result of the food served on board, differences in the environmental conditions inside the cabin, the risk of crossinfec...
