Reducing peak stress on the Baggage Handling System: A research into the effect of buffering cold transfer baggage at Schiphol airport

Air transport has gone from a once in a lifetime experience for the extremely rich to a day to day method of transportation for everybody. With the increase in passenger movements the amount of baggage that goes through airports has increased as well. This could cause problems for airports if they have a limited capacity in one of the parts of...

Aircraft Noise Model Improvement by Calibration of Noise-Power-Distance Values using Acoustic Measurements

Aircraft noise and its impact is one of the biggest challenges the aviation industry faces today. At airports, the number of operations and the flight routes are driven by the noise impact on the surrounding communities. To predict the expected aircraft noise levels around airports, noise models are used. The accuracy of these models is thus of...
