OPTIMIZATION OF AIR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES AT AIRPORTS WITH UNCERTAINTY IN AIRPORT CAPACITY

This paper presents a stochastic optimization model for strategic management of arrival and departure traffic at a single airport with uncertainty in airport capacity. It is assumed that a set of possible capacity scenarios with probabilities of their realization are known. A concept of expected capacity is introduced. The average-case solutions based on the expected capacities provide a compromise between the strategies obtained separately for each of possible capacity scenarios. Illustrative numerical examples are presented.
