Airport Capacity and TSAM A Modeling Framework to Estimate Airport Runway Capacity in the National Airspace System Yueh-Ting Chen Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science In Civil and Environmental Engineering Committee Members: Dr. Antonio Trani Dr. Hojong Baik Dr. Hesham Rakha December 12, 2006 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: airport runway capacity, Airfield Capacity Model Copyright 2006, Yueh-Ting Chen A Modeling Framework to Estimate Airport Runway Capacity in the National Airspace System Yueh-Ting Chen Abstract The objective of this study is to estimate the airport capacity in the National Airspace System (NAS). Previous studies have focused on the airport capacity of large commercial airports. This research study estimates the runway capacity for more than two thousand airports in the NAS in order to understand future tradeoffs between air transportation demand and supply. The study presented in this report includes capacity estimates for general aviation and commercial airports. To estimate airport runway capacity, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airfield Capacity Model (ACM) is used to assess the capacity at all candidate airports in a target airport set. This set includes all airports with potential Very Light Jet (VLJ) operations. The result of the study provides a broad view about the airport capacity in the future air transportation system, and could help decision makers with a modeling framework to identify congestion patterns in the system. Moreover, airport capacity is an important limiting factor in the growth of air transportation demand. The main motivation in our analyis is to include airport capacity constraints in forecasts of air transportation demand. The framework described in this report has been integrated into the Transportation Systems Analysis Model (TSAM). TSAM is a comprehensive intercity and multimode transportation planning tool to predict future air transportation demand. Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr.Trani for the opportunity to work with him in the Air Transportation Systems Laboratory. His wisdom and patience guide me throughout this study, and the past two years are definitely one of the most invaluable learning experiences that I have ever had. I would also like to thank Dr.Baik, Dr.Rakha, Mr.Swingle and Nick for all of their advices and help throughout this research project, especially the great work of TSAM integration by Nick. Besides, I am really glad to have Senanu, Anand, Sohn, Jeff, Yue, and Nola as my colleagues. Fang-Yi, Chu-Yun, Chih- Yang, and Wen-Chun, I would like to thank all your encouragements. Last but not least, I have to thank the support from my parents and brother throughout my study in the Virginia Tech. Thank your all!

  • Desind Finding
    NATIONAL AIR AND SPACE ARCHIVES Herbert Stephen Desind Collection Accession No. 1997-0014 NASM 9A00657 National Air and Space Museum Smithsonian Institution Washington, DC Brian D. Nicklas © Smithsonian Institution, 2003 NASM Archives Desind Collection 1997-0014 Herbert Stephen Desind Collection 109 Cubic Feet, 305 Boxes Biographical Note Herbert Stephen Desind was a Washington, DC area native born on January 15, 1945, raised in Silver Spring, Maryland and educated at the University of Maryland. He obtained his BA degree in Communications at Maryland in 1967, and began working in the local public schools as a science teacher. At the time of his death, in October 1992, he was a high school teacher and a freelance writer/lecturer on spaceflight. Desind also was an avid model rocketeer, specializing in using the Estes Cineroc, a model rocket with an 8mm movie camera mounted in the nose. To many members of the National Association of Rocketry (NAR), he was known as “Mr. Cineroc.” His extensive requests worldwide for information and photographs of rocketry programs even led to a visit from FBI agents who asked him about the nature of his activities. Mr. Desind used the collection to support his writings in NAR publications, and his building scale model rockets for NAR competitions. Desind also used the material in the classroom, and in promoting model rocket clubs to foster an interest in spaceflight among his students. Desind entered the NASA Teacher in Space program in 1985, but it is not clear how far along his submission rose in the selection process. He was not a semi-finalist, although he had a strong application.
