Since September 11, 2001, airport screening procedures in the US have been continuously evolving. For example, the passenger screening process is now trying to strike a balance between security and customer service (i.e. minimizing wait times). This balancing act has important implications not only for passenger safety, but also for the financial stability of an airline industry that is faced w...

An intermodal transportation terminal is a facility that provides commuters with easy transfer between many transit modes and providers such as buses, light rail, subway, taxis, airport shuttles, and commuter rails. The probability of a passenger transferring from one mode to another and the estimation of total transfer demand are of great importance to both practitioners and researchers when d...

The motivation to improve intermodal connectivity at airports results from a growing interest in reducing the volume of highway traffic generated by airport access and egress trips and facilitating the ability of airport travelers to use high-occupancy modes. However, there is a lack of standardized analysis tools for evaluating the viability and impact of different strategies to improve interm...

Motives: Regional passenger airports are an important component of a developed transportation system that reflects the broader development region and country. Due to small number studies examining air transport at regional micro-scale, it is carry out diagnostic this mode determine possibility development. The article presents reasons for creation, stages construction transformation selected no...

Fundamental to intermodal development is consistent demand modeling across the intermodal system, which coordinates resource allocation. However, different planning organizations are responsible for the development of different components of the intermodal system. In the case of air transportation, air demand modeling is mainly conducted by Federal Aviation Administration and commercial airline...

The air transportation network in a country has a great impact on the local, national and global economy. In this paper, we analyze the air transportation network in Brazil with complex network features to better understand its characteristics. In our analysis, we built networks composed either by national or by international flights. We also consider the network when both types of flights are ...

As more metropolitan areas approach " non-attainment " status for ozone, air pollution at airports is becoming an increasingly important topic. Most proposed emissions reduction strategies target passenger automobiles and airport ground service equipment (GSE). At many airports, the future growth in oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions from aircraft is likely to offset any reduction achieved from...

In addition to the increasing passenger demand, airline frequency competition is another reason for the growing demand for airport resources. By providing more flight frequency, an airline attracts more passengers. As a result, demand for flight operations often exceeds capacity at congested airports, resulting in delays and disruptions. At some congested airports, the limited airport capacity ...
