A principal stakeholder in this community is the commercial aviation industry. Because of the highly competitive nature of the air travel industry, air carrier investments must be justified on the basis of a positive business case that addresses costs and benefits from the user’s perspective and takes into account the full operational complexity of the air traffic system. To support the NASA aeronautics research program, Logistics Management Institute is developing an integrated suite of models and databases called the Aviation System Analysis Capability (ASAC). The ASAC Air Carrier Cost-Benefit Model (CBM) was developed to analyse the financial impact to airline operators of investing in innovative technologies. Populated with data from several large air carriers, the CBM fills the gap between the highly aggregated

Aircraft noise is one of the primary constraints to growth in air travel. Airport and aircraft noise analyses are needed to help researchers and operators assess potential impacts of changes in aircraft performance and noise on a community. To conduct such analyses, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, through an industry and government partnership, developed the NIM.

As part of their research, the AvSP has looked into the use of probabilistic risk assessment methods. Logistics Management Institute (LMI) is supporting this work by developing a unique modeling capability which features two parallel but complementary analysis chains: Markov reliability analysis and operational simulation. Use of the LMI models and methodology will allow NASA to gain a better understanding of their safety technology portfolio and identify drivers of safety early in the design process. This workshop presentation provides an overview of the methodology and a brief demonstration of the operational simulation for a basic scenario in which Synthetic Vision technology is used to perform terrain avoidance.

The ASSIST program builds the model by recursively applying the transition rules that are defined for the architecture. This Markov model description may then be used within the PAWS reliability analysis program. The PAWS (Pade Approximation With Scaling) program calculates the state probabilities at a given mission time. A wrapper routine (TARAT [3]) iterates through the subsystems and combines the results, yielding the overall functional modes. Surveillance Radar Reliability Model Figure 11 is a simplified top-level diagram of a surveillance radar system. This is a generic diagram representing a system with dual redundant-critical components. The system includes both a primary radar that can track the skin return from any target in its coverage area and a secondary radar, or beacon system, which sends out interrogations that trigger t...

This report models the industry as a whole, avoiding unnecessary details of competition among the carriers. To develop the schedule outputs, we first present a model to forecast the unconstrained flight schedules in the future, based on the assumption of rational behavior of the carriers. Then we develop a method to modify the unconstrained schedules, accounting for effects of congestion due to limited NAS capacities. Our underlying assumption is that carriers will modify their operations to keep mean delays within certain limits. We estimate values for those limits from changes in planned block times reflected in the OAG. Our method for modifying schedules takes many means of reducing the delays into consideration, albeit some of them indirectly. The direct actions include depeaking, operating in off hours, and reducing hu...
