Kalender, Deniz (author)
Research on hangar parking is scarce and either neglects or oversimplifies towing considerations. In this paper, a novel approach is presented that integrates towing operations as a fundamental aspect of the hangar parking optimization, and uniquely focuses on minimizing towing operations. For the method, two A* adaptations, Dynamic State A* and...

Airline reserve fleet capacity is a strategic resource that provides airlines the means to add robustness to their schedules. This paper focuses on leveraging past data on airlines' execution of planned schedules (resulting delays, cancellations and missed connections), along with the disruptions that prohibited the flawless execution of the...

This study presents an innovative algorithm designed to optimise the layout of floating offshore wind farms (FOWFs), addressing inter-array cable length and the number of anchor structures required. This research is particularly noteworthy as no prior work has been conducted on wind farm layout optimisation for FOWFs. The Local-Search-Inspired...

When there is a need to move cargo across the world in the fastest possible manner, airlift is the prime solution. Due to the potential extreme requirements of airlift, aircraft have to be capable of performing in a myriad of operational environments. To support future aircraft design loops, this work proposes a framework which couples aircraft...

Baggage handling operations in airports have become substantially more challenging due to the surge in air transportation demand witnessed in the last three decades combined with an even higher pressure on the operations following the COVID-19 pandemic. The intricate nature of checked baggage requirements, impacting resource allocation and...

This research presents a comprehensive modeling approach for the flight dynamics of a hybrid compound helicopter, employing classical mechanics methods. The derived non-linear mathematical model encompasses the individual components of the aircraft, including the rotor, propellers, wings, fuselage, and empennage, which are then integrated into a...

Air cargo is vital for efficient global supply chains, enabling the rapid transport of valuable goods. Combination airlines, a significant player in the industry, use both dedicated full freighters and the belly space of scheduled passenger flights to transport cargo. This research develops a decision tool that combination airlines can use to...

Optimizing the routes of firefighting aircraft can reduce the time it takes to contain wildfires and make sure they remain within control. In this paper, a novel formulation of the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is developed to improve aerial firefighting operations by optimizing aircraft routes. The formulation is a capacitated split delivery...

The demand in global trade of goods is thriving in the recent post-COVID times and is forecast to increase to the highest levels of the past decade. This calls for global transportation companies to implement increasingly efficient and highly optimized transportation processes to fulfill both demand and their need for economic and environmental...

This study investigates the problem of prioritising trucks at the export area of the KLM Cargo ground handler terminal while maintaining a continuous operation in the unloading area. Due to the uncoordinated nature of truck arrivals and space limitations at the ground handler, substantial waiting times may arise when<br/>trucks arrive...

The demand for online shopping has grown tremendously in the last couple of years. Picnic, a major player in the online grocery industry, is struggling to achieve long-term growth within its current operations. Scheduling and planning are key drivers for maintaining operational efficiency. The Fulfilment Centre (FC) and...

With (e-)grocery retailers striving to increase their efficiency and subsequently reduce their costs, the opportunities that lie in optimising the order picking process of the supply chain is of key importance. The complex nature of assigning articles to an optimal storage location, having efficient routing of order pickers, and optimised...

Broeders, Ward (author)
This study proposes a flight scheduling model with an added aircraft emission model to solve the schedule design, aircraft routing and cargo routing problems for a full-cargo airline, where aircraft emissions are explicitly part of the decision-making process. Our model considers both operational sustainability (maximisation of profit) and...

Due to a projected shift in the majority of the world’s population towards urban areas and the existing traffic congestion in today’s cities, the possibility of using the third dimension for transportation of people and goods is being increasingly explored. The resultant congestion from an estimated demand of unmanned and Urban Air Mobility...

van der Wal, Wouter (author)
The planning of air cargo across an airlines' network is proven to be a complex problem consisting of multiple subproblems. Currently, all these subproblems are solved sequentially and by hand, resulting in partial solutions instead of an integrated solution. Two of these subproblems are the palletization of items onto ULDs and the scheduling of...

In this paper, we introduce the Air Freight Flight Schedule Development Problem (AFFSDP). In this problem, a cargo-only carrier has to adjust an existing flight schedule based on changes in the predicted demand. The result of this research is a model that combines airport selection, fleet routing and cargo routing, together with the use of a ...

This paper studies a variation of the pickup and delivery formulation with time windows which is applied to air cargo export operations. The formulation is extended using three factors. 1) Pickup nodes are positioned at freight forwarders. Delivery nodes are located at ground handlers. Trucks can only visit one freight forwarder. 2) Dock...
