Meta-heuristics for aircraft arrival and departure scheduling on multiple runways
(
Institute of Industrial Engineers
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
The problem of scheduling aircrafts on multiple runways can be modeled as an identical parallel machine scheduling with release times, target times and deadlines. To schedule arriving and departing aircrafts as close as ...
Heuristic algorithms for aircraft sequencing problem
(2012 , Conference Paper)
Delays in flights resulting in multi-billion-dollar losses are declared annually worldwide. Hence, an identification of air traffic policies that can reduce frequent and costly inefficiencies is needed. The problem of ...
Multiple-runway aircraft sequencing problems using mixed-integer programming
(
Institute of Industrial Engineers
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
We examine aircraft sequencing problems over multiple runways, under mixed mode operations, with the objective of minimizing the total weighted tardiness of aircraft landings and departures. A mixed-integer programming ...
A novel technique for extraction of geothermal energy from abandoned oil wells
(2012 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates the possibility of design and construction of a geothermal heat exchanger suitable for installation in abandoned oil wells. Based on the in-situ data collected, an amenable heat transfer numerical ...
