Assessing the Impact of A constrained Airport on the Capacity of an Airport Network with Simulation

Paper

The current article deals with the problem of assessing the practical capacity of an airport network.

This problem is approached using simulation techniques taking into account not only the variables that currently limit the capacity but also other ones that affect the capacity such as the stochastic behaviour of the system, the current traffic mix, environmental limitations and the interrelationships among the airports that compose the system. The article put focus on the North Holland region which is a good example of a system that struggles for allocating the growing traffic in the coming years.
