Airport Operations Systems
AY2023/2024 Semester 2
The aim of this course is to introduce airport operations and airport systems to undergraduate mechanical & aerospace engineering students. This course is designed for you to understand how airports function, are designed and planned. The course will cover fundamental concepts in airport operation for both air side (runway, taxiway, navigation aids) well as ground side (design of terminals and passenger buildings). The course will also cover system aspects of airport development such as capacity modelling, demand modelling and delay analysis. The course assumes that you would need to deal with current issues as well as future challenges in airport planning, design, and management. It focuses on the actual problems that arises and on practical, effective ways of dealing with them. The course will cover three important aspects of an airport: 1) planning the airport system, 2) aircraft runway performance, and 3) analysis methods used in airport modelling.
