Abstract Continuous Descent Operation (CDO), an aircraft arrival procedure in which an
aircraft descends from an optimal position with minimum engine thrust, can significantly …

The contradiction between air traffic capacity and demand exerts congestion and delay,
resulting in airspace operating at or above its capacity. This paper proposes a performance …

The constant growth in the demand of air cargo and air passenger nowadays has imposed
many new challenges to the operations and management in the aviation industry. Both the …

Congested airports benefit from parallel-point merge systems (P-PMSs) for efficient arrival
route control. However, the decline in air traffic due to COVID-19 has curtailed its optimal …

The growing global air traffic has necessitated more efficient ground management in
airports, especially during peak hours. Current approaches mainly consist of radar-based …

Global air traffic demand has shown rapid growth for the last three decades. This growth led
to more delays and congestion within terminal manoeuvring areas (TMAs) around major …

This paper presents a study of using site-specific statistical meteorological data in the
construction of curved flight procedures to explore its potential in reducing the environmental …

In some small airports, a parallel taxiway is not built due to space restrictions or financial
issues; hence, the runway itself is often used as a taxiway in this type of airport. After touch …

The paired approach is a kind of efficiency approach to closely spaced parallel runways
(CSPRs), and the point merge system has the powerful interval management function, which …

The increasing demand for air traffic at airports necessitates the efficient utilization of ground
facilities such as runways and taxiways. Intersecting departures, in which one or more …
