Abstract

Thunderstorms can cause a decrease in airports' dynamic capacity, and taxiway runway capacity is a key element of airport airfield operations. In this paper, based on the cell transmission model (CTM), the meteorological operation parameters of thunderstorms are set according to the airport aircraft taxiing rules, and a CTM is proposed for evaluating the resilience of the airport aircraft area operation network under thunderstorm weather. Based on the CTM, the network performance parameters are obtained, and the number of aircraft waiting for the network and the network operation efficiency are used as the basic performance indicators to establish a resilience index that reflects the dynamic change in the resilience of the thunderstorm meteorological interference network. Finally, this paper collects and analyzes the operation data of Tianjin Binhai International Airport in 2019 to build a CTM for aircraft operation in the flight area. The results show that the model's simulated airport departure operation data is almost consistent with the trend of the actual departure operation data, which verifies that the model can be used to simulate traffic for the airport airfield operation network. In addition, based on the resilience index, the sensitivity analysis of different parameters to network performance under thunderstorm weather was also studied. Based on the evaluation results of different parameter scenarios and indicators, we drew the resilience map of the airport ground operation network, and found that the network shows different resilience levels in different thunderstorm level scenarios. This study provides a great method and evaluation index for modeling and resilience evaluation of aircraft operation networks in the airfield, which is expected to improve airport operations, reduce flight delays, and improve service quality.
