Modelling Airline Operations at Major Commercial Airports for Strategic Decision Support

L. Douglas Smith, Canser Bilir

Transportation Development Research · 6-19 · 10.55121/tdr.v1i1.101

The authors discuss an integrated modelling approach for improving flight operations at major commercial airports. Statistical models, built with microdata from hundreds of thousands of flights, are embedded in a process-oriented discrete-event simulation model with two-dimensional geo-spatial characteristics and logical structu

Spatial Heterogeneity in the Impact of Urban Land Use on Road Traffic Carbon Dioxide Emissions

Yang Yang, Jiacheng Jiao, Xingqi Ji, Yixuan Xue, Hongliang Xia, Yinling Chen

Transportation Development Research · 105-120 · 10.55121/tdr.v3i2.1012

Road traffic has become one of the major sources of carbon dioxide emissions. However, there remains a lack of consensus on how urban land use influences these emissions. This study investigates the spatial distribution of municipal-level road traffic carbon dioxide emissions and their land use drivers in Japan’s Kanto region. O
