This paper quantifies the impact of aircraft emissions on local air quality and climate change. Aircraft emissions during the cruise cycle and the landing/take-off cycle are considered. A tool is developed that computes emission values using real-time air traffic data derived from various...

The focus of the present paper is on the role of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) in addressing road capacity issues, and delivering environmental benefits. For this purpose, three ITS technologies are selected: Driver Assistance Systems (DAS); Automated Highway System (AHS) for passenger...

<title>Abstract</title> Airport slot misuse disturbs the efficient and continuous operation of capacity-constrained airports, leading to congestion and delay problems. Deviations from the coordinated schedule in regional airport systems that feature seasonal demand and delays in certain peak periods are...

To estimate the capacity requirements for all access related facilities of a new airport and to set pricing or operational policies it is necessary to forecast the share of each transport mode that airport passengers use. The development of these forecasts cannot be based on mere transfer of...
