This paper presents a novel framework for the modelling of passenger facilitation in a complex environment. The research is motivated by the challenges in the airport complex system, where there are multiple stakeholders, differing operational objectives and complex interactions and interdependencies between different parts of the airport system. Traditional methods for airport terminal modelli...

Airports constitute some of the most complex systems enabling mobility in today’s society. The various components inside the airport system each have specific requirements and include numerous systems, processes and stakeholders. Stakeholders are comprised of government entities (security and customs), private bodies (airport owner, airlines) and customers (passengers and cargo). An airport det...

This paper introduces an Origin-Transfer-Destination (O-T-D) model that predicts the route and segment passenger flows between airport pairs using origin-destination (O-D) passenger demand between airport pairs. The model is developed based on a multinomial logit model and covers 443 nodes (i.e., airports) and about 6000 links (flight segments). To create airline schedules between any airport p...

Integrating passenger and freight flows creates attractive business opportunities because the same transportation needs can be met with fewer vehicles and emissions. This paper seeks an integrated solution for the transportation of passenger and freight simultaneously, so that fewer vehicles are required. The newly introduced problem concerns scheduling a set of vehicles to serve the requests s...

We examine the impact of post-9/11 airport security measures on air travel in the U.S. Using five years of data on passenger volume, we evaluate the effects of the implementation of baggage screening and the federalization of passenger screening on the demand for air travel. These two congressionally mandated measures are the most visible changes in airport security following the 9/11 attacks. ...

Large-scale disasters that interfere with globalized socio-technical infrastructure, such as mobility and transportation networks, trigger high socio-economic costs. Although the origin of such events is often geographically confined, their impact reverberates through entire networks in ways that are poorly understood, difficult to assess, and even more difficult to predict. We investigate how ...

The body scanning device, used at some airports to view through passenger's clothing to the surface of the skin, is considered to be a major improvement toward ensuring that weapons or explosives are not carried onto commercial aircraft, making airline travel safer, and the nation more secure. In the ten years since September 11, 2001, airport security has become increasingly invasive. Air pass...

Changes in the U.S. domestic airline route system have increased competition between international gateways. To assist in understanding this phenomenon, a system of models that predicts airline passenger flows resulting from different airline gateway hubbing strategies has been developed. The calibrated rnodels predict baseline passenger Mows quite accurately. The system was then used to projec...

The sharing and openness of network are convenient to the airport operations and passenger information inquiry, but also result in information security issues. In the design of Hongqiao Airport West Terminal network system, information security issues have been taken as important topics, and preventive strategies which aim at the specific circumstances have been formulated by comprehensive anal...

This research aimed to analyze the capacity of domestic passenger terminal in Adi Soemarmo Boyolali International Airport. The data were collected from observation, documents, and literature review analyzed using formula Regulation Minister Transportation Republic Indonesia No. PM 178 2015 on Service Standards for Airport User. this airport was used as an initial forecast needs facility develop...
