Correia da Silva Guerra Nunes, Miguel (author)
Airline reserve fleet capacity is a strategic resource that provides airlines the means to add robustness to their schedules. This paper focuses on leveraging past data on airlines' execution of planned schedules (resulting delays, cancellations and missed connections), along with the disruptions that prohibited the flawless execution of the...

As turbofan technology advances, periodic engine inspection and maintenance still remain a significant part of aircraft operational costs. Operators are thus looking to engine condition-based maintenance (ECBM), leveraging sensor data and numerical engine models for continuous diagnostics. KLM Engine Services developed a surrogate model based on...

With its 500.000 flights per year, Schiphol Airport is one of the busiest airports in Europe. Efficient runway use is vital for a smooth day-to-day operation. This paper investigates the new runway scheduler at Schiphol Airport, also referred to as the Departure Manager (DMAN). The new DMAN is built for a better utilisation of the outbound...

This study presents an innovative algorithm designed to optimise the layout of floating offshore wind farms (FOWFs), addressing inter-array cable length and the number of anchor structures required. This research is particularly noteworthy as no prior work has been conducted on wind farm layout optimisation for FOWFs. The Local-Search-Inspired...

Airports and aviation in general play a crucial role in the transportation network of society. More than 2,500 airports support an annual traffic of 4 billion passengers. However, this number is expected to continue increasing to 8 billion passengers in 2040 according to International Air Transport Association (IATA). At the same time, the...

As aviation recovers to pre-pandemic levels large amounts of Air Traffic Flow Management delay also return, as the traffic at airports and in airspaces reaches their old levels. These delays have a yearly cost of around 500 million euros in the European Civil Aviation Conference area and are detrimental to the experience of passengers. This...

Flying characteristics of a multi-engined light general aviation (GA) aircraft during and after an engine failure is often a major safety consideration when both designing and operating the aircraft. In the meantime, the propellers, being large rotating masses, can exert considerable gyroscopic effect on the aircraft during flight, itself...

With (e-)grocery retailers striving to increase their efficiency and subsequently reduce their costs, the opportunities that lie in optimising the order picking process of the supply chain is of key importance. The complex nature of assigning articles to an optimal storage location, having efficient routing of order pickers, and optimised...

Over the years, aero engines have evolved into the efficient turbofans present on commercial airliners today. Although these engines are very reliable, they still experience degradations in performance and reductions in component health. The degradation affects the operation of the engine, which can be measured using the pressure, temperature,...

Within this thesis report the transition to LH2 infrastructure at the airport is tackled. Specifically, how the airport can develop and adopt the infrastructure needed for LH2 supply logistics, storage, and refueling is researched. This process can be defined as a socio-technical transition in which a new niche technology (LH2 aviation...

Network scheduling and fleet assignment are essential tasks for airline operation. In order to generate an optimal flight plan, the flight route and the flight schedule of each aircraft in the fleet requires deliberated consideration and planning. Compared with commercial airlines, which are in pursuit of maximal benefit during the operations,...

Due to a projected shift in the majority of the world’s population towards urban areas and the existing traffic congestion in today’s cities, the possibility of using the third dimension for transportation of people and goods is being increasingly explored. The resultant congestion from an estimated demand of unmanned and Urban Air Mobility...

In this paper, we introduce the Air Freight Flight Schedule Development Problem (AFFSDP). In this problem, a cargo-only carrier has to adjust an existing flight schedule based on changes in the predicted demand. The result of this research is a model that combines airport selection, fleet routing and cargo routing, together with the use of a ...

Due to the continuous growth of air traffic up to the year 2020, the air transportation network has become more complex, and the airports and airspace busier. However, capacities have not grown at the same rate as air traffic, making Air Traffic Control one of the most encountered primary delays. A data driven approach is taken in order to...

In recent years Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AAS) has been the airport with the highest Airport Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM) delay in Europe. EUROCONTROL delays inbound flights heading towards AAS on departure, due to reasons at or around AAS. There are two main reasons for Airport ATFM delay at AAS, Weather and Aerodrome Capacity. This...

City logistics concern solutions in package movements that face challenges in rapid growth in demand for home deliveries, congestion, and expectations from consumers for sustainable solutions. Providing last mile delivery services with drones is considered a promising solution in literature as a response to the raising challenges in urban areas....

The concept of Urban Air Mobility (UAM) services was created mainly in response to traffic congestions. In this research we focus on UAM services such as those provided by Uber Elevate. We therefore present a framework to solve the Urban Air Mobility Problem with Time Windows (UAMP-TW) under dynamic demand, using an Adaptive Large Neighborhood...

As poor air quality poses a risk to human health, this study aims to estimate the impact of Schiphol airport on local concentrations of various air pollutants from January 2014 to August 2020. The pollutants of interest are nitrogen monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone and particulate matter. Three separate methods were applied: a comparison of air...

At many airports, the arrival and departure demand often outpaces the available airport capacity. Therefore, the flowof arriving and departing aircraft needs to be controlled to ensure safe and efficient operations. Many airports have been implementing systems that provide electronic assistance for air traffic control in planning and sequencing...

Commercial greenhouse gas emissions from aviation are proliferating, as is the concern among freight carriers to minimize their carbon footprint. From a corporate point of view, the United Nations International Civil Aviation Organization ( ICAO) expects aircraft emissions to triple by 2050, with aviation accounting for 25% of the world's carbon...
