Integrated Demand Management Findings from March 2018 Simulation: Demonstrating Benefits of Submitting Multiple Trajectory Options

This presentation provides a summary of August 2017 Newark airport simulation, with focus on impact of varying Trajectory Options Set (TOS) "participation levels" (i.e., the percentage of flights that submit TOSs), as well as the results from March 2018 LaGuardia simulation with Flow Evaluation Team, which focused on benefits to individual carriers of participation. During the study, we demonstrated that both the participating and non-participating airlines benefited when TOSs but that the participating airlines benefited most and the improvement seen by participants was greatest when overall participation was lower.

Demand-Capacity Balancing Algorithms for Urban Air Mobility Operations

This paper proposes new Demand/Capacity Balancing (DCB) algorithms that resolve imbalances at enroute waypoints, such as crossing, merging, and UAM corridor entry or exit waypoints, in addition to vertiports; we refer to this algorithm as DCB-Waypoint, still using pre-departure delay as the sole resolution mechanism. Like DCB-Vertiport, DCB-Waypoint takes one flight at a time and resolves imbalances one waypoint at a time, starting from the origin vertiport followed by the sequence of constrained waypoints and, finally, the destination vertiport. The next advancement assigns airborne delays, in addition to pre-departure delays at vertiports. This algorithm, called DCB-Airborne-Delays, uses information on flight speeds to ensure that the assigned delays are feasible, meaning that variations in flight speeds are within feasible aircraft speed ranges. The proposed algorithms are being implemented in a new fast-time simulation tool developed especially for simulating UAM operations. The full paper will provide additional details of the new DCB algorithms that have been developed, as well as the results from simulations using these algorithms. Finally, the DCB algorithms will be compared against one another to obtain insights and recommendations for the future development of more advanced DCB algorithms.

World Air Travel Demand, 1950-1980

Total world scheduled air passenger traffic carried by the airlines of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), excluding the U.S.S.R., increased from 17.4 billion passenger miles in 1950 to 237.4 billion in 1970. This represents an average annual growth rate of 14% during the past two decades. The U.S.S.R. became a member of ICAO in 1970, and Aeroflot - the only Russian airline - reported 49 billion passenger miles for 1970. This traffic, which encompasses both domestic and international travel as well as some nonscheduled flights, is not included in the ICAO world totals shown in this report.
