Runway Exit Speed Estimation Models
Increasing air traffic in the U.S.A has led to runway capacity limitations at the airports. Increasing the capacity of the existing runways involves reducing the runway occupancy time of an aircraft landing on a runway. The location of runway exits plays an important role in minimizing the runway …

Development of an Aircraft Landing Database and Models to Estimate Aircraft Runway Occupancy Times
… predictive models for estimating arrival flight runway occupancy times. In the second chapter, all the algorithms developed for analyzing the airport surface radar data are explained, and detailed statistical information about various airports in the United States in terms of landing behavior is …

Airport surface traffic optimization and simulation in the presence of uncertainties
… These impacts may be mitigated by optimizing runway and taxiway schedules. In prior research, runway scheduling algorithms and taxiway schedule optimization models have been developed independently, but they are closely related in airport operations. This motivates the development of a fast …
