As an alternative to kerosene (Jet-A1), green hydrogen is considered a potential solution to reduce the environmental impact of the medium-range aviation industry. While the technical feasibility of liquid hydrogen (LH2)-powered aircraft is already being researched and demonstrated, the required infrastructure, as well as its impact on the...

Through several contractions, stiff competition, and increasing passenger expectations, airports must evolve continually. One of the main avenues for this has been improving the efficiency of the security check- points, which are airports’ primary bottlenecks. Operational optimisation methods, such as resource and task scheduling are relatively...

This research addresses the process of task allocation in a heterogeneous multi-agent fleet through the introduction of a novel mechanism in existing decentralised consensus algorithms: bid intercession. Bid intercession refers to the principle of agents biding on behalf of other agents in decision-making architectures leveraging market-based...

Many large airports aim to have complete autonomous airside operations in the future. Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AAS) for example, launched the Autonomous Airside Operations program to achieve this goal. Our main contribution is to present a Multi-agent Pickup-and-Delivery (MAPD) model that uses a centralized task allocation mechanism to...

Rotterdam the Hague Airport (RTHA) is planning to implement a new self-service luggage check-in system which has a different concept of operations compared to the current self-service system for luggage check-in. To efficiently develop, evaluate and implement this new system, a simulation optimization model is required to test different system...

Climate change poses a significant global challenge and the aviation industry, a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, must address its environmental impact. As the demand for air travel continues to rise, transitioning to sustainable forms of aviation becomes crucial. This paper focuses on the challenges and opportunities associated...

Low-altitude, high-density air traffic is expected to grow in the coming decades with several companies being certified to initiate urban operations for both freight and passenger transport. However, traditional human-centered Air Traffic Control operations (ATCos) are not scalable to handle the increased demand to maintain safe separation...

Airport terminals are complex sociotechnical systems, in which humans interact with diverse technical systems. A natural way to represent them is through agent-based modeling. However, this method has two drawbacks: it entails a heavy computational burden and the emergent properties are often difficult to analyze. The purpose of our research is...

Aircraft turnaround optimization has recently gained attention from researchers, with the goal of freeing up capacity in congested airports. Most modern research focuses on the passenger boarding process. However, cabin cleaning also resides in the process critical path and an improvement of the cleaning lead time will therefore impact the...

Inspired by the vision of fully autonomous airside operations at Schiphol airport, this study aims to contribute to the short-term goal of automated aircraft ground handling. In this research, we design and evaluate a multi-agent system for planning of automated ground handling. There are two main components in the system, task allocation...

Kamphof, Jorick (author)
Growth in air traffic demand and the increasing importance of reducing emissions cause airports to consider the improvement of their ground surface movement operations in terms of efficiency and environmental impact. Over the past years, engine-off taxiing techniques have been considered to reduce the environmental impact of airport taxiing...

The healthcare systems of developed countries are getting more centralized and specialized. In order for this trend to continue one requires a reliable medical emergency delivery system. Both governments and private companies recognize that drones might be a good fit for this job. Previous qualitative studies suggest benefits of an Unmanned...

The increased pressure to reduce aircraft emissions and the growing demand for air travel causes airports to consider alternatives for fuel-inefficient aircraft taxiing. External towing tugs can be deployed to effectively reduce on-ground fuel burn of outbound aircraft. These new operations are likely to aggravate ground delays as a result of...

The severity of natural disasters is increasing every year, having an impact on many people's lives. During the response phase of disasters, airports are important hubs where relief aid arrives while people need to be evacuated out of there. However, the airport often forms a bottleneck in these relief operations, because of the sudden need for...

The loss of wildlife due to illegal poaching activity poses threats on both the survival of iconic animal species and the livelihood of local communities. This research proposes a distributed surveillance model in which a UAV swarm autonomously coordinates continuous surveillance in a dynamic environment. The adaptive behaviour of poachers has...

Passengers are frequently affected by airline disruptions, leading to a poorer than expected passenger experience. Airlines are affected by disruptions in the order of billions of dollars. Managing disruptions effectively is therefore paramount for an airline’s long-term commercial success. In spite of decision-support tools being introduced to...
